It starts with a misfire,progresses to difficult starting with pointing uphill/downhill sometimes making a difference, and ends with a runaway engine dieseling or just non start and diesel fuel in sump oil.
A denmark VW tech has posted that there is a cracking problem on #3 cylinder in the cylinder head. I:
