HI there
I have a convertible 2005 2.5 TDI V6 and having looked on other threads my problem seems to differ from others so im looking for some advise if possible, before I go spending a lot to try and get it fixed !
A few weeks ago my car after running it all day (warm day) would not fire up, it cranks like its trying but will not start, prior to this the car has had no other issues, tried a few times within that hour to get her going but no luck ! it try's to start but wont turn over, goes to the car the next day, cold start fine no problem, decided to get her checked out and it had 3 faults, the ECU unit was removed and sent away and the faults noted on that came back as no problems, and had 3 weeks more of running her fine ! Although though I've been taking my time and only short runs to and from work, so its been a cold start each time,
Last week however after a 12 mile run in hot weather I had left it about an hour the car failed to start again ! again tries but no luck in starting her, went back 3 hours later car started like nothing was wrong !! So back and had her checked again and the problem is coming up P1570 fault, been on the internet doing some checking on websites and checked wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/17978/P1570/005488 but all the issues seem to differ to mine, whereby the engine cuts out when driving, mine has never done this..
The non starting only seems to happen when the car is warm, like a relay is breaking down or immobiliser is not connecting when its warm.. its there a relay connected to the fuel pump that may be the issue? or key/immobiliser link that breaking down
So any ideas would be appreciated or if anyone else has had this issue??
thanks in advance
Alison
