It starts but not like it should.
Glow plugs OK.
Battery OK.
Fuel filter changed recently.

Mine always sounds rough until its warmed up and then it sounds like a beautiful diesel sound.

Every derv ive driven has been the same i think.
 
It STARTS rough (all diesels run rough after start in winter), but mine STARTS rough.:cold:
 
I see i dont understand what that means... this forum doesnt get much coverage, possibly get more if you post in the A3 or A4 section

Vag-com not bringing up anything?
 
I think first I will try to adjust ignition timing, if that doesn't work I will connect to VAG COM (it will probably be a sensor then).It's so annoying, I also have a power loss, my a3 isn't a pocket-rocket when engine is fine and now it drives almost as SDI. I guess that whats happens when you have an old diesel problems problems problems

234K on the clock, anywhere below 2oC. Sounds like Lemmy from Motorhead gargling with a bag o bolts!! Give it five minutes and it just sounds like a bag o bolts.... Ah the glorious derv.
