| I think you're already along the right lines, i.e. air leak somewhere. A previous D3 I owned had the same fault and symptoms caused by a pin hole in the reservoir (which I found almost by accident). ... |

| It was from bhrepairs.co.uk - I'd done a bit of research and saw a recommendation on PistonHeads. The service was excellent, cost was reasonable; I'd considered two post lift, but in the end went wit ... |

I bought a 2008 TDV8 VSE a few months ago as a project.
£2000, 134K miles. Java black.
It's got a few issues, usual rust on wh ... |

| I think you've got to go back to basics and agree with the comments above. Fundamentally, regardless of the electronic complexity, the starter needs 12V to turn it over, if that isn't happening, ther ... |

| Try a reset - remove the battery and then connect +ve to -ve on the car. Give it 5 mins or so after you’ve disconnected the battery before you do it. |

Just done it on my 3.6 TDV8 due to squeaking and discovered it's the power steering pump...
