| Also check the 3 relays under the driver's seat. My 2005 Td5 suddenly wouldn't start (was cranking but not firing) and replacing the relays completely solved the problem. I'm unsure which one it was b ... |

| Looks like a really nice honest Td5, good luck with the sale. Can I ask how your RAM mounts are fitted? Looks as though you've got some kind of fixing bar attached to the dash? |
