I thought that too bit there seems to be conflicting info online.I thought glowplugs weren't service items? Meant to be lifetime items? But I mean if it helps then maybe I'll give it a go too!
I'd only swap 'em if you have an issue pal. My car ponged of diesel and it seemed to be getting worse.wish I'd got some for them to do in my service. Doh! should improve things Lee![]()
