You have to replace all 4 injectors if you want it to sound perfect. But this is normal for 14 years old injector and 240k km. If it starts right and you have no smoke or misfires don't bother. It's ok

@@faircars7081 thank you for replying I’ve also noticed that after a couple of days while the car is at its hottest it starts shaking again and after a bit it’s stops and everything goes back to normal ? The temperature gauge reaches 90 around the streets but on a long journey the needle drops from 90 to 70 quite quickly just wondering is this all linked together ?

@@adeelasghar5353 Try to see if shaking happens while DPF regenerates. I had that problem too.. Temperature problem should just be a bad thermostat

Ciao con 238.000 km la pompa alta pressione ha dato problemi, la CP4 ho la stessa macchina ma con 100.000 km grazie

Yes, sure, no problem!

Yes it is. 8 years and 260000km, timing belt, tires, brake pads, oil changes and 1 shock absorber. DM flywheel starts making little noise, but that is because it towed a trailer most of the time. It will also need a VVT and a O2 sensor in the near future. And a battery :))

@@faircars7081 not too bad

Good to know that clutch is still holding up even after hauling trailers at this mileage!

I garantee to u that waiting 30 sec. Does nothing for this car, u have to heat up the glow plugs multiple times to start it without too many difficultes. Cranking the engine immediatly just gives an hard time to the starter and drains a lot of juice from the battery, so doing like OP is showing is the best, at least for this car. I personally own one of those and it’s the exact same even for mine on cold starts

Only the lower specification models

dCi von Renault sind super OK. CDI von Mercedes und HDI 1.4 und 2.0 von Peugeot/Citroen auch. VW hat nicht so gute Motoren, TDI ebenfalls.

It's the original one, 8 yrs old

@@faircars7081 You still have original ? My Passat is 5 years old and my battery sounds low in cold weather. Sometimes i get error messages too because of low cranking voltage.

@@Mickytdi Yes, as you can see at minute 1:40 😅. 253k km now, still with it.

@@faircars7081 i’ll soon be catching up i’m at 233k 😆. Does the start/stop still work ok?

@@Mickytdi It works every time, no problem. Started even after 4 days at -10. Next winter will die probably 😂

Это дизель

It’s a diesel what did u expect.. the sound is basically resembles a truck

The saab always has problems, my family's too

@@dimmacommunicationdoesn’t really make sense it’s literally the same diesel engine used by both

@@gabrielgomez2483 Simply some engines are less " lucky ".

@TheArdanwen @dimmacommunication @gabrielgomez2483 , you guys have egr delete or still have egr on? bought a 2009 1.9 ttid (z19dtr) with 200k km on the clock and thinking about it a lot

@@dimmacommunication you have egr delete on it king?

Я думал только у нас в России такой ерундой занимаются, а нет в Европе тоже. У нас некоторые уникальные люди и по 4-5 раз греют свечи

Yes it's Phase 1. It was 2005 november, or december, but the first registration was done in 2006.

@@goranpavlovic9051 Don't know. never had one.

Some passats were built in Slovakia...

@@dobrien757 no they all build in Emden Germany

OP might be used to older car designs. My old Ford diesel had the glow plugs on fairly short timers to prevent them burning out, and on a cold morning the only possible way to start it was to cycle the glow plugs off three times then turn it over. agree that a modern car like this probably has intelligent glow plug controllers that keep them on as long as is needed

I have this specific model of saab, it Makes a difference when cold starting it, I garantee it

It makes a huge difference, i have same Saab and I cycle 7-10 times for a quick start.

@@hp2084 7-10 seems a bit exessive, try give it 2/3 times and waiting 30 sec. Each time, it’ll for sure start up smooth

@@andrewd.6072 Sure will try that. I cycle them every time the glow plug indicator goes out. Have the car only for a month and a half so still getting to know it.
