Hey guys, so last week it had been below freezing in Utah and on our way to see a movie the glow plug light came on and started to flash. Turned the car off at the stop light restarted and all was well. After the movie ~10 degrees outside, started home and light came back on. I vagcom-med it and got two codes.
16471/P0087-Fuel Rail/Fuel System Pressure: Too Low
And
I believe it was a fuel pressure sensor intermittent.
I cleared the codes, then coming home from new years eve party it happened again. Temp was around 10 degrees.
Ross-Tech wiki has listed items as fuel gelling, low battery power, interesting because the interior lights flickered a little the last week, is my battery on its way out?
I've since added some power service white bottle and Temps have increased to around 32. Light hasn't come back on since.
So... is further investigation warranted or should I dismiss this as, cold weather induced diesel trauma?
Thanks for any help/advice!
Happy New Year!
