Mine was ok this morning but the rest of the week it has taken 5-10 secs run properly.

Did not use GSM FBH this morning though.

No GSM FBH for me. This is the Heelands, it would receive the txt in the spring!! Laughing Laughing Evil or Very Mad

In the cold, normally ~10 secs to glow plug light off then turns fine. Never rough running til warms up.

Local indy, labour 50+vat per hour. Bonus is you get the cambelt service done at same time, so if it's due (like mine was in march) you can offset that £600 against the bill.
