2013 Mazda 6 Diesel - Fuel not Registering/Fuel Line Issues 4 Mar 2019 (Forum)
After about 3 miles the car started running jerkily as if there was a fuel line issue. I parked up and left it. I've just added another 5 litres of diesel to make sure (so about 12 litres in total versus 3 miles of driving) and the fuel readout is still on zero and no fuel is getting through (engine eventually cut out after driving about 100 yards tonight.) -

VW Golf III diesel 1996 - No fuel going into engine 15 May 2010 (Forum)
Hi there, I'm having problems starting my golf diesel mk3, and i've noticed that fuel is not getting to the engine. I checked out the fuel relay and fuse, the fuel filter and it seems that the fuel pump may be the culprit.

Petrol v Diesel v Dual Fuel 12 Mar 2003 (Forum)
Is there a quick rule of thumb formula for working out when it becomes more economic to go for a specific type of car. (Thinking high mileage) Diesels cost more, but do they depreciate less?
