Hi there,
I have a 2006 Jetta TDI and if I start it in the morning (first time starting) and the temperatures are below 0 degrees Celsius, it will idle very rough and if I don't let it run for a good 2 minutes or so it bogs down and stalls shortly after putting it in drive and giving it gas.
It also seems to be idling a little louder than normal when at lights / stopped. So I'm wondering if that could be related?
I already brought the car to my mechanic and he started off by replacing the fuel filter (which he said was quite dirty) and he also did a fuel system purge. But the issue is still occurring.
So I was wondering if anyone had any ideas? Could it possibly be an issue with the glow plugs?
