A mate of mine has picked this wagon up and can't get it to run. Because of this he's loosing heart with it so I'm interested in taking it on but haven't a clue what the problem could be. This is what he has told me; it trys to start but just turns over, ive give it sum easy start and it fires up, runs rough and smokes from exhaust but cuts out after like 20-30 seconds He's had VagCom on it shows no fault? ? It's perfect as it has everything done to it that I would to my next project!! Cheers

Since it runs on easy start,.my guess, if its injection would be the fuel pump or relay if carb, fuel pump or blocked carb Ttfn Glenn

1z is diesel, so guessing at something simple, try bleeding the injectors while cranking it over?

My bad, unless its a common rail, would suggest checking the stop solenoid, is it clicking when power applied, if ok try bleeding the system, has the filter got fuel getting to it? Are there any air leaks? Ttfn Glenn

worth checking the glow plugs and the start stop solenoid, that cured the issues on mine. also once running get the pump timed, makes one hell of a difference

these can be a sh1t to bleed through if the fuel system has been opened up for any reason- eg a filter change.
pressurising the tank to force fuel through whilst point bleeding at the unions is usually the best way to get em going again.

Could it have been missfuelled? Got petrol in the diesel? Ttfn Glenn

You say he's had a new injection pump fitted. Has it ran since the new pump?
Have you checked the pump timing on VagCom? It won't throw up a code if the pump timing is out.

The pump relay are prone to going (109 relay from memory) and are pretty cheap to replace (or fix, its dry joints in the relay giving up and there are guides on resoldering them)
