Hello

I've got an issue with my 2005 V6 TDi Touareg - it won't start.

It's been sat for around 6 months - so my initial thought was battery, as the battery was low even before it was laid up. But even with a 15v jump starter pack, it turns OK but won't fire up.

I'm going to try draining the fuel and replacing it next, just in case the diesel has degraded.

But is there anything Touareg-specific I don't know about? Any kind of reset or special magic to make it come to life?

Any advice very welcome.
 
I’ll cautiously assume you haven’t scanned for codes or viewed fuel pressure and are just raw-dogging it?

Scanned for codes but got nothing - not sure how to view the fuel pressure.

I'm starting to think it might be the fuel pump, as I can't hear it prime (although I don't remember hearing before when it was running perfectly).
