Hi,
I have a 1.6 TDI common rail, that has over 130,000 kms on it. For quite some time, I have noticed the engine takes increasingly longer to warm up. It takes as long as half hour or more of driving. During this time, the acceleration and fuel efficiency is also lower.
I have had the car scanned using VAS at the dealership a number of times, but no errors pop up.
I am wondering if there is a way to diagnose the issue using VAS/ODIS, and determine if it due to the coolant temperature sensor, thermostat, or something else.
Thanks.
