300 tdi starting problem fixed

Just a comment on solution to an annoying starting problem I've had With cold starting or when the car had been sitting at work all day

The car struggled to start with symptoms of air in fuel or poor fuel pressure once running it was fine and mostly started really easy the rest of the day.

After Much thinking I realised I had replaced the fuel filter during the week before the problem started. So before replacing the lift pump etc I put a new filter on and made sure the seal surface was clean. Now week later it starts every time.

Lesson learned ... Start with the simple stuff first.
