Hi ive got a 2007 2.0tdci ghia galaxy im having some issues with it.At the start of December I went out to start the car, the car hadnt been started for 10 days the battery was flat, so I got it jump started to get me on my way. The dmf +clutch needed replaced so I replced it in the middle of December the car is still starting an running fine.but this past few weeks it has needed boosted everytime I went to the vehicle. I tested the battery an it needed replaced so bought a new battery yesterday put it in vehicle an still when I try starting vehicle it very lazy as if the battery was discharged.i checked both earths one at battery an one between gearbox mounting bracket everything ok. I put a jump lead between gearbox and negative on battery just to rule out the earth lead. I tried starting vehicle again a few times then it started without any problems. I then took vehicle for long journey everthing running 100%, then car started to run lumpy an cut out. When cranking over this time battery an starter sounded healthy. It doesnt seem to be getting fuel?? Or am i missing something out?? when cranking over the starter cuts out after about 10-15seconds. If any one has came across this problem or has any advice itwould be greatly appreciated. Best regards Jamie
