Right my MK1 LCR is driving me F![[:@]](/forums/styles/seatcupra/oldforumsmileys/furious.gif "Furious [:@]")
king loopy now
Got an intermtinat problem when starting from cold. The battery is fully charged, all fuses fine and not throwing up a single fault code on Snapon/VAGCOM/Torque Pro but 99 times in 100 the car just doesn't turn over.
The Throttle body adapts and the water pump starts up, all the lights come on the dash as normal but nothing not a jot from the starter motor.
After anywhere between 5 and 45 minutes it will just start as normal but not knowing when is driving me mad. It was fine during the summer but now it's cold and wet the problem has started again
I usually wiggle around all the wires and pipes under the bonnet but there isn't much consistency as to pipe/wire wiggled and if it starts, I've tried to be bit more systamatic about this and the last coupld of times working around the top corner of the engine around the DV and Pankake pipe seems to have worked, could it be a faulty N75/DV or blocked pipe?
I've had the crank sensort changed as thought it may be that, the ECU has been swapped it isn't that.
Prior to this issue I've had both the clutch and cambelt done and this issue seemed to start not long after those so my thinking is something was broken or not put back right.
Has anyone got any idea of anything plug wise that would stop the car even turing over then be ok 10 minutes later? Once running the car keeps starting as normal for the rest of the day or untill left for more then 5-6 hours.
I REALLY don't want to chop the car in after spending a small fortune bringing it up to a decent level but if this continues I'm going to have to offload it to we buy any soul...........
