I went to look at a 2002 Auto trans TDI Jetta at a car lot. It looked like it had been sitting a while (they had to move a few cars to dig down to it). It took about 5 tries of 20 seconds of cranking before it fired. 80°F and sunny outside, cranking speed seemed okay but slightly slow. Once it fired it ran rough for a few seconds then ran fine, and restarted immediately. Car seemed to have slightly less power than others I have test driven, but nothing drastic. Any ideas what could cause this?
Car has 111000 miles, just had timing belt and new head installed, they thought they had the receipt but could not find it (but the head was obviously new).
Thanks,
