subject: No start problem 2003 GOLF GLS TDi
Replaced Relay 109 last week. Mechanic says he primed the pump with fuel. Timing is right on. He says it should start not does not start!

Price of Diesel
I noticed a number of stations that were involved in the failed effort to quickly drive Reg NoLead way over $2 were important in driving Diesel from $2.60 to below $2.50. The stations trying to drive Diesel back toward $3 were competative on Reg Gas. This week Hess which owns and operates a signific...

2003 Golf TDi Dropped dead could it be Relay 109
Last Saturday my 2003 Golf TDi died on the highway. Fuel system seems OK, I can draw fuel from the almost full tank, through the new fuel filter I pre-filled with fresh diesel. I've looked into the fuel shut-off solenoid valve which may be OK, but now my research has come up with a Relay 109 Problem...

Let 's say the older VWs were designed on Earth. I suspect the TDi 's use technology from crashed UFOs. ...

The airbubble does not seem important.The immobilizer or the Fuel shut off (valve/solenoid) May be culprits in my non running TDi's There is no lift pump out back no water separator other than the filter either: No blockage or clog or air in leak in theline from my tank to the injector pump where th...
