Please see video,

You will notice on my second attempt to start up the a3 (2.0 tdi) i pushed the accelerator.

Bad battery and/or starter.

Yes it seems to be cranking over very slowly. Is the battery old?

Stick a 096 battery in it then go from there.

What is the difference with all the different types of bosch apart from the prices?

 

[Darren92]

I wouldn't buy from ECP they are quite dear compared to normal motor factors or even TPS.
