My car does not start when the temperatures are low, such as - 10 degrees. It's a 307 SW HDI 110 pk. Another 307 with the same engine starts without any problem The car starts, motor runs 1 second and is gone again. This happens untill an hour trying and trying. Then is sounds for a short time like running on 3 pits instead of normal 4. The service manager has no idea what to do to fix the problem!!
Can anyone help
Thanks,
Harm-Jan Wijnholt
How about checking the glow plugs!!
It's starting- just for a second so forget the glow plugs. Apart from that the hdi doesn't actually require any heating from glow plugs at european temperatures. DaveK.
frozen diesel?
I have the same problem last year, I adjust the valve clearances corretly, and now my car start quickly.
