    TD4 poor starting

    like i said earlier ,most likely your fuel pump is on its way out, at over 100k its about time for a change anyway and they dont last forever, you should be able to hear it running as you switch on, sometimes a gentle tap will help if that is the case replace it asap

    help me please

    Richard, regardless of hearing the fuel pump running the engine wont start if the cam sensor is not providing the correct timing signal, the cam signal is required on start up only, it tells the ecu that no 1 piston is on the compression stroke so it can fire the injector, after that it...

    Has Radweld just killed my engine ?

    have used radweld in my td4 several years ago, never had any issues, it stopped the leak, the product reacts with air, usually at the point of the leak, there are some engines that do have narrow water ways, but in general follow the instructions,, the worst thing you can do is not have the...

    Think it might be time to replace these.

    wax oils or any old oil will prevent rust from getting a hold, if it is done annually, i wouldnt use paint or under seal as it will just corroded undeneath, the oils penatrate into the rust, apply using a paint brush or hand sprayer its very effective and cheap
