#1: Black mark after cold start Author: awirnok, Location: LithuaniaPosted: Thu Feb 24, 2011 12:03 pm ---- Hi again,
weather is cold, so I start a car usually from second or third time. I heat spark plugs several times too. There were some new snow and after the start I saw this:
I saw these black colly before. The biggest mark was after staying of car one week. Then my battery wasn't high-powered so I bought one and started a car again. Problem was also with diesel of summer, but it is the past.
Question - it is due to cold weather and very cold start or other probably?

And if it takes a few pre-heats to get it going that will happen, its just deposits left in te exhaust andsome unburnt fuel getting thrown out
If its a HDI, it will be in need of a service and good run up the road!!
