Good morning all,
I have a 2006 VW Golf TDI, that has a rough/vibrating idle, and rough/vibrating acceleration through lower RPMs. Once she’s up to speed, the vibration seems to lighten up, especially after shifting up gears. After also pairing that up with having a harder time starting her up at times (inconsistently won’t turn over, have to wait a bit after coil symbol turns off), the internet says that it’s probably the glow plugs. However, after talking briefly with a mech over the phone, he said it could be something with the EGR, but there’s no check engine light?
If anyone has any insight, please help me out. Trying to figure out what to check out myself first before paying the arm and leg for someone else to do it.
