Any ideas why my Skoda Octavia won't start?

The question

Hi, I have a 2007 Skoda Octavia. It has problems starting when cold. It can take up to six tries to get it going. I have changed the air flow meter. Any ideas what else should be checked?

Hi Pat,

You've not told us whether it's petrol or diesel. If diesel then definitely worth testing the glow plugs. That sounds like the most probable reason for this.

Tell us more about it if that doesn't help.
