[Engine] Starting Problem...ish

[Egg on Leggs]

Hi All,

'04, DW8 1.9D

Car starts fine from cold and runs fine. Over the past week it has started randomly to not fire up when hot (normal temps) straight away, taking up to 5 attempts.


Everything else is fine.

Does this point to a component on its way out or something that needs resetting.

To follow up on this, my initial logic was the the engine cut out might be sticking so I lifted the front cover over the engine and gave everything with a linkage a good drink of lubricant.

This appears to have resolved the problem.

Good news hopefully !
