I had same issue but i fixed it

Its a fuel injector... you can hear it is running on 3 pistons

Did you find the problem

Glow plugs ain’t gonna do shit if ignition is left on for 3 mins 🤣

Battery defo. I have been charging my batrery everyday by driving around 20 to 30 mins past week. RAC helped me with jump start 2 weeks ago. I ordered a new battery today. I changed the battery in 2019 Dec with 3 years gurantee. Euro car parts accepted to refund. My mistake bought tye shit Lion battery.

You should not leave the ignition on - you should start it as soon as the glow plug light goes out. Glow plugs will be cold by the time you are starting it - they only heat for a few seconds. Sounds like it's having problems building up fuel pressure though. It's a PD engine so could be fuel pump in tank, or possibly injector seals.

Did you resolve this issue?

Right, I've the same but when mines hot... So cold starts on the button, but when it's warm it dose what yours is turns over for ages.... But I hear the same clicking from the passages side when I turn on the ignition!! Mines a 54 plate tdi gt ( just hit 10000 miles)

Need a service

I had the exact same thing just bought 4 new glow plugs and it starts with no hesitation all the time

You DO NOT start a diesel car like that. You need to turn on/off the key about 2-3 times and wait for the ignite lamp to furn off - then you start.

change fuel filter or car battery or both

Hi John - did you get this sorted in the end? We've got the exact same issue

Its a Layz start don't try anything else and waste your money

Another possibility usCamshaft sensor. Common fault

hi, I just started experiencing such cold start issues on my MK5 1.9 TDI (BKC) like 2 days ago. It will struggle initially, though once started, each subsequent start is just instant/perfect. scanned it using vcds today, no errors are reported at all. did you find a solution to this issue? regarding the 'clicking sound' you're hearing from the passenger glove-box area, it's the 'recirculator flap motor' being stuck/faulty.... the clicking sound may go away if you press the 'recirculate' button though ;) EDIT: well, it turned out my cold start issue was actually because of a failing tank fuel pump not delivering enough fuel... I also started having rough idle issues as well as having a brutal vibration when idling in neutral... replaced the tank pump and everything's back to normal :)

Change your glow plugs. I had a Ford Mondeo mk2 TD that did the same. I found that two of the glow plugs had burnt out. I replaced them and the car started first time with no problems after that.
