Hi, I am a new user and new to this forum. I have been a member of countless general car forums, but now that i bought a Mk6 it is more convenient to be on a car spesiffic forum instead of a general forum.
On friday i bought a sweet looking Golf Mk6 105hp TDi 2010 with 150k km distance traveled.
Yesterday when i tried to start it at home at temperatures -12c (it is usually much colder) the car starts, then run unstable for 3 secounds, then dies.
The dashboard says "Remove Key".
So i tried again and again and after 10 starts it finally not died and started by it self.
I preheated(waiting for the coil symbol to fully disappear) the engine between every start to make sure it was "hot enough".
Today it started with no problem at -8c.
There are no warning lights or error code as far as i can see (i do not have a error code reader yet).
The car started well with no problems when starting it warm at the car dealer.
A part of the deal was that i bought it with a new timing belt, so the new timing belt has only 200km to it.
Not sure if this has anything to do with it.
I would like to add that I have a engine and gear garantee for three months or 3000km as part of buying a used car from a used car dealer.
What could this be? Fuel Pump? Fuel filter? ECU? Glowplug?
