i idd see something about faulty starter motor causing electronics to go a haywire. no idea why or why it would cause cas fault code.
fingers crossed you have got it licked.

Ok guy's
still got starting issues, so starter didn't solve the issue? I don't think it's as bad but still taking a bit to start?

Hello, i hade the same trouble with mine.
I bet if you plugged the computer into it ,it would come up with a "crank angle" code.
Will it run start ok??
If it will your starter is stuffed, it won't be cranking it over fast enough and drawing too much voltage. See how ya go.

Hi dan
have replaced starter brand new with ebay 1 and it still done it, i went to the wreckers the other day and got a second hand 1 and does seem better, doesn't seem to be throwing CAS code anymore, and tacho not jumping all over the place.
I have also replaced CAS 3 weeks ago.
But it does still take a few winds to fire when it's cold, have done new glow plugs 2 weeks ago!
once started vehicle drives fine, i would say very gutless! but seems to drive ok, no misses or anything like that just gutless! always has been.

boost really kicks in at about 3000rpm which is wrong! way wrong! that's 80% through it's rev range before ya get anything, this thing is that gutless i'm going to kill it trying to drive it harder than it needs to be?
If i had to get out of someones way in a hurry! i wouldn't have a hope in hell, i might as well just sit there and let them hit me!
I don't have a m8 that has a D22 but where is map sensor? didn't know they had 1?
I no you have checked this, but the value timing and main timing are all good?
You will be suprised i had a vr6 golf, changed the head.... and bam ran like an absolute pig!
Problem one was.... Hall sender sensor died... but the BIG issue was that the timing was only ONE tooth out so it was dead below 2500-3000rpm
What happened was that we lined the cams and everything to top dead centre... however when the slack was removed/taken up from the chain via the tension-er.. it turned one of the cams out by one tooth, which we didnt notice. Chain and everything lined up it was just that moment of tension which changed everything!
Once fixed it was a new car.
May be completely unrelated- but it seems in your situation anything could help!
Are you sure you have injector pump timing sorted.
It sounds like your timing is slightly retarded. if it struggles to start and develops power later....
I no your probably not keen to strip the front off and check but i think its mechanical not electrical.

Dan, swap your boost sensor. See if anyone in your area will let you try there's.
Any updates on the starting problem ?
Batteries are good ?

ok guy's changed starter motor and that has fixed the Tacho going stupid and throwing CAS code, but now glow plugs don't seem to be working at all? and they are new VPS? the glow light comes on and stays on then goes off after a while like it should, but still like starting a cold diesel, wind over about 15/20 times then fires up with a gut load of smoke?
blown the glowplug fuse?

how'd ya go greedy? sort the problem?
mine did this a few months back, thought i solved the problem with a new battery, new glow plugs, new fuel filter and added larger earth's and clean cleaned the rest of the earth connections.
but it started doing it every now and then soon after, now its every time i cold start the thing and some times when its warm. thinking of throwing in some clear fuel lines before the fuel primer and after and see if i can find any air bubbles.
