My jag starts sloe with clunk haf battery tested ok

Hi Andy, Welcome to the club.

 

Can you tell us a bit more, please?

 

Is it a difficult starter and does it run OK when started?

 

Regards,

 

Peter.

Runs mint and done 180k no leaks or any mechanical issues. It turns slow and starts straight away but slow at cranking .I thought it was battery but I have had it tested at Halford s with the high tech batt tester .could it be starter motor

Possibly starter motor, Andy.

 

You have done 180k - which is a fair old mileage and still good for a few more.  Have you tried the terraclean service, though.  I would guess that the engine would like that!

Whats terraclean do

Whats terraclean do

Hi Andy,

 

It gives the engine fuel system a good clean, and is particularly good for diesels.  Just google the site.

 

A member of this club bought an x type 2.0 Diesel and it was a poor starter when hot.  He was told by a main dealer that he would need new glow plugs and injectors and a wallet with £1200 in it.  He spent £109 on a terraclean and the problem was solved.

Do thay put it in the fuel tank or whats the process thay do thanks

Hi Andy,

 

They have a machine which they connect to the fuel system, and then run the car after connecting certs canisters to the machine.

 

There was a programme on "Wheeler Dealers" where they used one.

 

It does make a difference.

 

Regards,

 

Peter.
