    Just a week ago we acquired a very nice '10 reg 3.0TDI S-Line Quattro Q5. Ran like a dream until today when it threw up a flashing glowplug warning light and went into limp mode. Needless to say, after leaving it off for a bit, no repeat of warning light and runs fine again.
    I've read it could be the glowplug timer, or even fuel pump? Sadly my diag tool (which I thought was a better-than-average one) doesn't show any codes.
    Is there anything I can do to narrow down what it might be, apart from buying a better tool or taking it somewhere? Luckily the place we got it from says they will sort it out for us, if we can get it to them, but they're a fair distance away.
