Hi, am having problems with my 02 tddi Mondeo. It wouldn't start for me other when i come out of work, was as if there wasn't enough juice in the battery to turn it over. Put jump leads across from a 2.2 Honda Prelude(plenty big enough i thought), but made no difference what so ever. We then tried bump starting and it started straightaway, drove fine on the way home with no problems. Tried starting when i got home and nothing. Have tried today jumping off a diesel transit but still same as day before, but again started with a bump. Have tried tapping the starter just in case it was sticking, but made no difference. If anybody could help it would be much appreciated! 160k

hi mate i had the same problem with my tdci turned out to be my starter on removal of the motor there was loads of steel shavings in it it was a relitive cheap fix just traded in my starter for a recon one at a cost of 90 quid and havent had the problem since hope this is the case for yourself and best of luck dougie
