Hi so im new here , not sure if this is the place to ask but here goes any way ... so couple days ago i was sitting in the van whilst in the driveway with the motor running, all seemed well the as if i turned the key off it just stopped????? ... i turned it over and thats all it will do i have checked the OBDII fault listing but it was clear? ... so any one got some idea of what the issue is or haw to solve it... desperatley need help with it as its my main work vehicle.

Its a 2009 Scudo 2lt TDI

MIKE.:confused:
 
Hi Mike :)

A bit confused by the
'I turned it off and it stopped'

Favourite easy tests:

Fuel pump in tank.. should whirr for 5 seconds with key at MAR.. before cranking engine

Earth cable failing internally.. run a jumplead from battery neg to engine metalwork

Failed cambelt.....

See if camshaft turns.. in time with crank


Poor starting needs a bit more kit.. but there are 3 suspects there ;)


Let us know the bigger picture

ok sorry for the poor grammar ..." then as if i turned the key off it just stopped????? ... i turned it over and that's all it will do"

I have checked the cam belt its good everything works it just wont fire, it is behaving like i have the wrong key it turns over perfectly no noises nothing out of the ordinary ... when it stopped i thought i knocked the key and it switched off that's the best way i can describe what happened ... now i have to say this van is very well looked aft6er serviced every 3 months checked over weekly fluid changes every 6 months so i guess what I'm saying is it not abused its my work vehicle as i am self employed to its kind of vital to my work i just want to get this thing going ... im thinking ignition failure?... does that make any sense?

REGARDS:
Mike.
 
Wont be the chip.
The chip is only looked at on startup.
With the engine running you can break the bow of the key off and throw it out of the window. The engine would still be running
 
egr valve problem....? no clean air for the engine , and it wil not run.
Disconnect the egr hose and start again.
