I've had my Bravo for 3 months now, and just topped 2000 miles. Its my first diesel car. The last few days it has had an intermittent starting problem. Up till now, I've waited for the glow plug light to go out, turned the key, and its started within about 2 or 3 compressions. Now about half the COLD starts, it turns over for for about 5 to 10 seconds before it fires up. It then runs perfectly.
When it messes about, the preheater light illuminates "as normal", and there is a click from the dash as it goes out. I'm thinking faulty relay or connection in the glow plug circuit. Any thoughts? Would this show up on a fault memory?
Its not a great problem at the moment, but when it gets colder.............
