Im having slow starts about 10 seconds cold and 5 or 6 hot on my 99.5 tdi jetta. It started after i changed my fuel filter ( i cranked the motor quite a bit til it started about 10 mins. Letting the starter rest every 10 seconds for 30 seconds).
Ive done some testing. And the car starts up with the coolant tem sensor unplugged. So i replaced it with the one from napa and this did nothing.
I also unplugged the glow plug harness and coolant temp sensor and it fired right up. Which leads me to believe theres a fuel pressure problem at start up when the sensor is plugged in .
Is there a way to test this in vcds.
Is it possible that my starter is not spinning fast enough
Is there a way to raise start up pressure or ammt in vcds?
Thanks for any help
