Title: Omega 03 2.5dti rough start
Post by: lenov on 21 December 2014, 12:53:36

Some problems with my Omega. It starts really bad when engine is cold. Weather temp was +2C. Could it be bad glowplug(-s)?

I don't get any sound with the video, so it is hard to tell what is happening. Is the starter motor engaged throughout the video?

If it starts to run better after about 30s, I'd be testing glowplugs.

Beyond that, I'd by plugging in diags I'm afraid
