Hi, Every now and then when I start my Nissan Largo the revs drop and it cuts out. Sometimes, the Glow Plug Relay then chatters for a couple of seconds. Any idea what the problem is please? I believe it has something to do with the Crankshaft postion circuit? Any help would be most appreciated, Regards, Malc

check to see if your brake lights are working.usually the stop light switch fails and is the cause.but before buying a new one check the stop light fuse.its a common problem with a simple fix.hope this helps.

Ok , ok. Give me some more information and we'll solve this. We're talking about a jetta TDI 2000 with an ALH engine code I figure.
#1 Do you have an faults recorded in the ECM like a check engine.
#2 Are you using synthetic oil 5W40 preferably Castrol?
#3 How old is your fuel filter?

I realize it's a little late in this game but I had a similar problem with my 2003 TDI. Sometimes it just wouldn't start, Dealer came and picked it up once to replace the battery under warranty and did all sorts of diagnostics to no avail. My brother suggested the ignition switch, so I watched it for several weeks and sure enough, new switch under warranty, problem gone for 4 years now.

I don't have the solution but a possible help in diagnosing. If you remove the water temperature sensor connector from the sensor, the glow plug light should stay on when you go to start the car. Try leaving it on for 15 seconds and then start the car. If it starts right away, it is your sensor. If it doesn't, the good luck.
The sensor is located on the right side of the engine near the top, at the back. It is in the coolant fitting directly behind the hose from the rad, just left of the thermostat. Be careful to disconnect the wires, and not remove the sensor, or you will loose a lot of coolant. The sensor is held in by a separate plastic clip, and the harness just has a little built in clip on the side. Hope you have small hands...
