Hi ladies and Gents,
Im new to this site and i am in need of a little help if possible.
I have used the search button but i cant seem to find any previous posts where someone has had the exact same problem as me.
I have a 2007 (57) leon FR 2.0 TDI which i have owned for about 3 month. I have been loving the car until about 2 weeks ago when the glow plug light started flashing and i lost power. It just so happens at the time that i was going for a little run up the coast and the problem went away until tonight. (at that time i ran the tank to 5 mile left before i filled so i just thought it might have sucked up rubbish from the bottom of the tank)
The glow plug light flashes, the display says 'engine fault workshop', i lose a lot of power which i am assuming is the turbo not coming in and when i drive it the car only revs to 2000rpm before i have to change gear. I must admit i did run the tank to '10 mile left' before i filled again tonight which i must stop doing but surely this isnt the problem is it?
Does anybody have any ideas what this could be? is it going to cost me an arm and a leg?
Many thanks.
