Hi all
I have a Sedici 1.9 multijet which when running is great but if stood for 10 hours or more does not start as it should. It turns over and over and over perhaps for 20 to 30 seconds before starting. To me it seems to turn over very slow but it does try a few times in the 20 to 30 seconds before it springs to life. Anyway some history its had new Bosch glow plugs, Battery reads 12.7 volts before starting and 14.1 volts when started even when loaded with all electricals on tick over, I think the starter might be dying but would like all your thoughts on it before I spend around a £100 on one only to find no improvement at all. Is there something else it could be? Thanks Stephen.
