I've recently bought a cheap winter car and went for an old E300 TD with 226k on the clock, car was running fine but this week it has struggled to start when cold, now usually I'd think glow plugs straight away but it isn't displaying any warning light and when I've been cranking it, it doesn't smoke at all when turning over which glow plugs tend to more?.
Once started it is fine for the whole day.
This morning when I eventually got it started I turned it off again straight away and it restarted fine.
I've heard air in the fuel lines can be a common cause of this?, could anyone advise where abouts the suspect ones usually are and if anyone does a kit?.
