Eventually, I'd like to use my 93 TiD (21/2 years old) > even in winter. It's been around freezing here (32ƒF/0ƒC) on and off for the last few weeks, and no problem starting my TiD. Equally last year, I recall some pretty cold mornings of around -5ƒC when it started no problem. When you say it cannot be started, what happens? Does it turn over fine but just not start? In previous diesels (Cit, Pug) this would indicate a heater plug problem, but not even sure is the 9-3 has heater plugs! -- Rob 2001 9-3SE TiD
