Just picked it up and it started first time. I drove to the nearest garage to fill it up. Started first time out of the garage then stalled on a roundabout less than 100 yards from the garage. managed to freewheel off the roundabout and got it going again after several times. It the n drove fine for about 1/2 mile and cut out again. after several times it fired up again so I waited for the temp to come up then took it for a long ride and it drove fine.
I read somewhere that this was a problem for earlier models which was fixed with some electrical mod and wonder if anyone knows if this would work on a mk7 2006 1.4 tdci.

\same again started it up from cold it started first turn then while idling it stalled after just 20 seconds. Took a few turns to start again then stalled. I started it again and took it for a 30 mile run through town and the by-pass. It ran perfect so something is wrong with starting from cold but I've no idea yet.
