Hi All
Previously posted about glow plug fail warning on my 08 1.3 multijet and since changed all the plugs. Starting improved but occasionally might take a few cranks to start..in fact on occasion its refused to start and sounded like the battery dies fairly quick! I do a couple of preheats and starts fine!
Bit if history...the car was completely dead on a trip out and managed to start it on as hill start..same day the clutch fluid hose split! while doing a hill start!
The mechanic told me the earth strap connector needed changing they crimped a new end ( clutch hose replaced)
Wondering could this be a bad starter motor or a combination of earth strap and bad starter.
Any ideas
