My 2005 06 reg 1.8T ZT would not start yesterday. First time it's failed me in 18 months of ownership. It turns over OK but will not fire. Could it be a problem with in tank fuel filter? Will the late model ZT have the Orange Clip fitted or would this be a later retro-fit item? If the filter has separated and needs an Orange Clip , where are they available?
Thanks , Andrew |

Not much response to this problem. Will have to check filter to see if it needs a clip. EML is lit when ignition is on. Not sure if it stays on yet until I can get engine to run.
