HELP-Car stalls after first starting

jimoilrell · May 22, 2007

My '05 Passat TDI stalls after first starting it. After the engine warms up runs fine, and restarting after engine is warm is without this stalling. I'm wondering if this may be from bad glow plug(s). Any thoughts? Thanks.

I would say that you should check for error codes with vag com. If you dont have one maybe someone in your area does and can help you out. If you have any error codes post them here and maybe someone will be able to help.

You shouldn't be using the glow plugs in the summer-so rule them out. Sounds like you might have an air leak in fuel line or the o ring wasn't properly seated when fuel filter was replaced.
