roverlloydy Posted August 15, 2012 Report Posted August 15, 2012 After being run for about an hour last night my glow plug light started flashing and everytime I started from a stationary position the engine stalled. It started straight away again and ran ok till the next stop then the whole thing happened again. I think this is called safe mode? The car seems to lack acceleration power and whenever it is run for a while the stalling happens. I have a 2000 1.9tdi. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Quote

roverlloydy Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Posted August 15, 2012 brake lights are working fine at the moment.....i have had issues when the coil light flashes and the lights aren't working but i usually take the switch out re fit it and it is fine. it has never caused stalling before......
