Oh right Laughing I think the best procedure with the tdci is not to run out of fuel in the first place but if it goes into limp mode you have to refill, put foot on foot brake, and crank for 5 seconds. Then you have to drive up to 3 miles for vehicle to sort itself out.

So not a disaster but prob best avoided...
