[passat 2ltr diesel starting problem]

If there is petrol in with your Diesel then that could cause it to not start, also untill the fuel has been drained and fuel pipes cleaned out and new diesel put in then its pointless swapping parts as you may also dammage them.

If you are lucky then you will get away with just replacing the fuel and filter
