I have recently just got an Arosa 1.4 PD TDI and it has just failed to start a few days ago! The starter motor cranks but she doesn't fire up!

I plugged in vag com today and earlier got 2 engine faults come up, think one was the N249 valve? Anyway didnt log them and went to check again earlier and the faults have now cleared by themselves! Checked 4 times and now coming up with "no fault found" I haven't cleared the faults and she still doesn't start can anyone help please?

cheers

Nothing special to say here, each fault code has a specific reset counter, that clears it after a certain amount of ignition and/or warm-up cycles. It's also possible the ECU simply lost them but that would be rare.

But the fault still exists so shouldn't a new code flash up after I tried to start motor again!?

Had seat look at the motor and they have cleared the codes down and took it for a test drive, they said it was driving fine and the codes didn't come back! Its been 2 days now and the codes still haven't come back so I dunno what happened!?
