Can I use these glow plugs on a petrol engine?

No, these glow plugs are specifically designed for diesel engines.

What is the thread size?

The thread size is M9x1.0.

What is the 'after-glow' function?

After the engine starts, the glow plug continues to generate heat for a short period, which helps to stabilize combustion and reduce emissions, especially in cold conditions.

How do I check if this part fits my vehicle?

Use the make and model tool provided on the product page, or contact the seller with your vehicle details for fitment confirmation.

Troubleshooting

Engine struggles to start on cold mornings.

This is a primary symptom of worn glow plugs. Replace the set according to the installation instructions.

Check engine light illuminates related to glow plug system.

A faulty glow plug or circuit issue can trigger this. Ensure connections are secure and plugs are correctly installed. Professional diagnosis may be required.

Glow plug is difficult to remove.

Ensure mounting grease was applied during the last installation. If seized, use caution and potentially a penetrating oil, but avoid excessive force which can break the plug.

Installation:

Ensure the engine is cool before starting installation.
Locate the existing glow plugs in the cylinder head.
Carefully disconnect the electrical connectors.
Use a 9mm spanner to unscrew the old glow plugs.
Before fitting the new plugs, cover the thread and shaft with mounting grease (e.g., GKF 01 - Order No. 0 890 300 034) to facilitate easier future removal.
Screw in the new glow plugs by hand to avoid cross-threading.
Tighten the glow plugs to the specified torque range: 8 Nm to 10 Nm. Do not exceed the failure moment of 22 Nm.
Reconnect the electrical connectors.

Care:

Glow plugs are a wear-and-tear item and do not typically require user maintenance beyond ensuring proper installation. Regular vehicle servicing by a qualified mechanic is recommended.
