Hello everyone!
First post here as i recently bought an 2000 Audi A8 D2, with the AKE 2.5TDi V6 engine, and I seem to have encountered a problem with it.
I think worth mentioning is that when I bought it the last owner had a small ish battery in it that would not be enough to start the car if left a day or two untouched.
As I’m in the UK at the moment a friend of mine is using the car and tonight he had to get it towed as the car would crank but it wouldn’t start at all and from what I’ve been told he only managed to get it started with starting fluid, but as soon as you stop spraying, the engine dies.
Can anyone share some advice on this issue?
