I replaced the whole return pipe (T) and removed air from the system, now it won't start. What could be the problem?

The same with mine! How you sorted ?

[@mbz4652]

@uniteduk3592 I sprayed some engine starter (startpilot) in the air intake hose just after the air filter, and the car finally started. Don't give it any gas, and if it revs instantly and very high, put it in 5 fifth gear and let the engine immediately stall to avoid damage to the engine and turbo. If you don't have a starter fluid, you can use some brake cleaner but not very recommended.

It might take a few cranks to get the fuel flowing again, this might be normal
