A6 C6 3.0 TDI 2006 Help
This happened about a week ago. I think I may have put contaminated diesel in my tank because after about 30 km of driving, the car started stalling and went into limp mode. The glow plug light started flashing, and I couldn’t rev the engine past 2,000 RPM. Eventually, the car shut off by itself. I sprayed some starting fluid into the air intake hose, and that got it running again. After another 300 km, the same thing happened again.
I also noticed that if I leave the car running stationary for about 30 minutes, the problem seems to go away and the warning light/error clears itself.
