Greetings to all
I have a D40 (2012) that won't start. I was driving to work and suddenly the car just switched off. Now it starts after a labored crank but it dies soon after and won't start again. If a wait for a long time, a few hours or so it will start again but it will switch off again. I had the suction control valve but the issue continues and there are no fault codes when I run a scan.
One thing I found on one of the forum is that I should press the primer bulb underneath the fuel filter that deliver fuel to the front and after a few pumps (4 to 8) it should go solid but mine doesn't and there is a slight leak of diesel from underneath the filter which I will be installing tomorrow.
Basically I am asking for help in general, this problem is wrecking my brain. Thanks in advance.
