    Hi everybody hope someone can help I have T4 which I have fitted a 1.9 tdi engine out of a Golf AHU 90 bhp it has been and still is running great but with the cold weather a problem has arisen with starting.It will start immediately smokes (blue/grey ) and runs lumpy as if choked up after driving off about 50 yards it clears and then is ok until gets cold again I have fitted new glow plugs as it was suggested that could be problem but they were ok and problem still there I am thinking possibly worn injectors (180,000 miles has anyone any other suggestions or can confirm my diagnosis.
    Many thanks in advance Paul
