foxy Posted July 12, 2010 Report Posted July 12, 2010 i have a mk 1 galaxy 1.9 tdi on a 99 plate. ive had a problem with it cutting out when driving and it wouldnt start for about 10-20 mins. and the car will not start now,ive bought new glow plugs fitted them but nothing has happened, so i bought crank shaft sensor today but havnt fitted that yet and ive noticed the glow plug light isnt coming on any more could that be down to the relay not working. :angry: Quote
marinabrid Posted July 12, 2010 Report Posted July 12, 2010 there is a main power relay on these , we have the same model, it can cause start probs as everyhting goes through it, i think its number 109 under the dash on the 2nd row i think, i did swop ours due t poor starting,if you hold it while turning the ignition on you should feel it click if it doesnt then that may be the problem.dont waste more cash buying parts till you know what is wrong, really you need vag com to check for fault codes Quote
