 I was about to resort to that at 5.30 last night.  But, Todays a bright new day

Everything's better in the morning.

In which case by your own figures the worst case would still yield a rail resistance of far less than 1 ohm and yet you're getting 2k8? OK, this time I'm out.

@The Gonz , Mate its getting a bit chaotic up here on the fight deck, could you run those figures again? 



 

It's the red one, cut it, cut it now or we'll all die

Like to do that to the Stepson. I think 12 + 2 from a previous relationship is enough....

That's continual 'chaos on the flight  deck'

I have exactly the same problem.
The Hyundai dealer tested and said that glow plugs are fine. They clean and changed fuel filter in tank.
Problem still exists.
I am also planing to change fuel filter in engine compartment.

At the beginning I suspected glow plugs, but the only one confusing fact is, that there is no smoke (I do not have DPF).

Hi Folks,

Long time reader, first time poster.

I've recently noticed my 2011 1.6 CRDI taking longer to start under the following conditions:

- The car has remained off for 10+ hours (basically in the morning).
- The colder the temperature the longer the crank before it starts.
- Immediately after the engine starts, I can switch it off and it will start again very quickly (No warm up time!).
- No fault codes are showing from the ECU
- No warning lights show AFTER startup although the battery light does stay on during the crank.
- The crank does not slow down while I'm turning the key.
- Cycling the glow plugs doesn't help.
- The engine runs no problem once started.

I've posted a of the engine during a startup at 4 degrees Celsius.

I'm really stumped for ideas as to what this is, however, here are my guesses so far:

- Bad fuel pump
- Bad check valve in fuel pump
- Throttle position sensor isn't giving a reading through the OBDII, this may have something to do with the start up procedure
- Weak battery
- Faulty glow plugs

Literally everything else is running perfectly with the car - No other issues once started.

I'd appreciate any feedback on this folks, it has my brain rattled.

Cheers,
Gary

That's strange, I was almost certain all UK diesel i30's had a DPF?  We only got them with the latest PD model.

[Paolo39]

It is first registered in March 2011 i30, I think the latest without DPF.

Well I am really surprised!

I think that was manufactured in the end of 2010, but registered in 2011. I asked in Hyundai Leicester, they do not know? I never had problems with the engine and I was driving mostly in town, before I changed jobs.
I ordered Glow Plugs and get them changed, as the fault only manifesting itself during first crank after whole night.
Thanks
