[Vwdiesel] Starting Problem(Update)

[Johan Thor]

Hi!

Is the car running ok when it's started? Check the
voltage to the glow plugs, the car won't start if
there is no or little voltage.

There should be ~12 V at the glow plug bar.

My Golf GTD -85 suddenly wouldn't start a couple of
weeks ago and that was a faulty glow plug relay.

regards, Johan
