I'm going to resist the temptation to make conclusions I am not completely sure of, but here are the facts: I have never, ever heard of a CIS engine doing this (your systems is Motronic, which is also a fuel injection system) and I expect I never will. It is virtually impossible. For a CIS system to diesel, the fuel pump would have to continue running after the key is shut off. If you pull the fuel pump relay out of a CIS car while it is running, the engine will die just as if you shut the key off. No coughing or sputtering, no delay. It will just instantly quit.

Those are the facts. Motronic may be different.
