It's a company hack but it's going to be my problem to get it sorted as cheap as possible.

Doesn't like starting and smokes for a minute or so. Can't use the power steering without the engine cutting. Pretty much struggles to keep going while smoking for the first minute or so. Starts fine without any smoke when warm

Glow plugs were changed not so long ago so can almost rule that out. Does use a litre or so of oil every 2.5k.

Company won't change this van until it can't be fixed

What kind of company vehicle is it where you have to pay to repair malfunctions? Very strange.

1.9 diesel. Just struggles to get going and keep going. Will stay alive as long as you give it a touch of gas.

I don't have to pay for the repair Brett, i've just got to get it sorted fixed when something goes wrong.

Easy fix?

Van is worth pennies so not worth spending much on it.

Mines like this except I've got a vw polo. I've been told it's the fuel sensors. Anyway of getting on the diagnostics computer?

Could be leak off pipes, injectors or possibly fuel pump.
