Hello,
My 2007 140TDI SE Estate started to run rough pulling into a car park, it then appeared to clear, pull into a parking bay, stopped the car, did the weekly shop,around 3/4 hour, car would then not start but cranked over OK. Checked under bonnet for displaced pipes/connectors etc. all seamed OK. Locked and unlocked the car no better, 3 week old baby and wife know over heating!!!!
So called Green Flag, who were very quick 25 mins on a bank holiday, he tried to start the car it ran for a few seconds them died again so got the car recovered to my work place.
This morning tried again to start just the same, kept cranking the car fired up and ran OK carried out a system test with VCDS and surprise surprise there was no faults logged.
Has anybody got any suggestions EGR valve, fuel vaporisation, etc.

Regards Nigel.:1zhelp:

A mechanical problem such as the tandem pump, will cause this and not show any faults.
Might be worth looking at the fuel filter to see what state it is in.
