Hi Everyone,
I'm really at a loss with my car and I'm struggling to get an answer, about 2/3 months ago the car started to develop a fault with its engine start. Whenever I start the engine first time (from hard, cold or in warm weather) it will also fire and work perfectly.
However the minute the engine is turned off intermittently it won't re-ignite and fire and I have to wait 10 minutes before it will successfully ignite again. I have taken it to a garage who ran a diganostic, charged me £60 and told me to take it Vauxhall, after multiple trips to Vauxhall (as they couldn't replicate it initially) they advised me to see a Diesel Specialist as they didn't want to start replacing parts and costing me a fortune. Ocassionally the engine will fire but not hit enough revs to start the engine fully, the only error on the ECU was a boost pressure sensor which was cleaned and checked by Vauxhall.
Normally this wouldn't be an issue, but if I were to stall the car or even filling up at a petrol station now is proving to be difficult and I daren't drive the car.
I've heard various things from Crankshaft Sensor to Injectors. I thought i'd post a couple of videos below so you can see it failing to start and when it sometimes starts but doesn't get up to the rights revs. Any help would be appreciated as I feel like i'm being passed around and although I don't mind spending money getting it fixed, I don't want to keep spending money getting it checked to be told there's nothing that can be done.
