My first post here, im trying to troubleshoot a polo.. :oops:

Its a 1.2 TDI, 2007 and 170 000 km

It suddenly died and were hard to start again, got it fired up, and it ran for 10 seconds and then died off.

- New battery
- Timing Belt whole.
- Diagnose showed a stored fault about boost sensor, deleted it and tried with same result.
- Tried a rolling start to elliminate the starter, no go..

Im starting to run out of ideas, anyone experienced something similiar?

Added a youtube with a soundtrack of cranking the engine.

Does this engine use a electric lift pump from the fuel tank?.
