Hi Gareth, firstly thanks very much for your input,  only thing I can remember my mechanic saying about sensor was it was on coolant line somewhere (I’m not very mechanically minded) he got sent the wrong sensor to start with they sent a 4 prong instead of 2, correct one fitted now, had car hooked up to my dads but still didn’t start so I’m guessing battery is ok,  I’ll have a look and see if I can find relay, spoke to a fella at work he suggested to check spark plugs? Thanks again

Was thinking about the fuel pressure regulator or the purge valve?

Not sure how old the battery is, I’ve had the car since may, it’s fine once it been running but once engine cools right down it’s just the same 

It’s turning over ok mate, would it be worth a shot? was gonna maybe put jump leads on it if it was the same the morra morning, twice I’ve had it a mechanic and it’s started first time with him 😏

Hi guys, new to this so bare with me, recently had cold start issues with my 1.8t b6, 11800 miles on the clock, car was running fine until last week, car sat  for 8 hours and took maybe 10 attempts before it started, was the same all week, After doing a bit of googling I thought it might be fuel filter or temperature sensor, both changed but car still the same,  when it eventually starts it’s idleing at 800 rpm which I’ve been told isn’t right, really strong smell of fuel as well, starts then cuts out before running properly, no ecl, any help would be greatly appreciated
