I changed the fuel filter last week (wich was as black as an oil filter!)and it seemed better for a while.Also noticed that the longer the car is left standing,say 2-3 days it is worse.I have been advised by a mechanic to try and avoid using supermarket fuel,I'll stick to leading barnds for a while to prove this.
This sounds exactly the same as mine, but mine's an 07 2.0 tdi 170, plus it does exactly the same on Shell V Power :\
