FAQs
When should I replace my glow plugs?
Glow plugs are typically replaced when they fail, indicated by hard starting in cold weather or a check engine light. They are wear items and do not have a fixed replacement interval, but inspection is recommended during major service intervals if starting issues arise.
How do I know if my glow plugs are bad?
Common symptoms include difficulty starting the engine, especially in cold temperatures, rough idling immediately after startup, and potentially a check engine warning light with specific glow plug system error codes.
Is it necessary to replace all four glow plugs at once?
Yes, it is strongly recommended to replace all glow plugs in the set simultaneously. This ensures consistent performance and prevents premature failure of new plugs due to mismatched resistance or age compared to remaining old plugs.
What is the lifespan of a Bosch glow plug?
The lifespan of glow plugs can vary significantly depending on engine conditions, climate, and usage. Bosch glow plugs are manufactured to high standards for durability, but they are considered a replaceable wear item.
Can I replace the glow plugs myself?
While possible for experienced DIY mechanics, replacing glow plugs can be challenging. They can become seized in the cylinder head, requiring careful techniques to avoid damage. If you are unsure, professional installation by a mechanic is recommended.
What is the part number for this set?
The Bosch part number for this set is 0250703004. The alternative part number is 31491846.
Which Volvo models are compatible with this glow plug set?
This set is designed for VOLVO V60 Mk2 2.0D 2020 onwards (engine code D420T8), VOLVO V90 Mk2 2.0D 2020 onwards, and VOLVO XC60 Mk2 2.0D 2019 onwards.
Troubleshooting
Engine has difficulty starting on cold mornings.
Check the condition of the glow plugs. A faulty glow plug or a set of worn-out glow plugs can cause hard starting. Consider testing or replacing the set.
Check engine light is on with glow plug related codes (e.g., P0380, P0381).
This indicates a fault in the glow plug system. This could be a faulty glow plug, the glow plug control module, or wiring issues. Professional diagnosis is recommended.
Engine runs rough for a few minutes after starting.
This can be a symptom of one or more failing glow plugs not providing adequate heat for smooth combustion upon startup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility Check: Before ordering, it is crucial to verify that this set is compatible with your specific vehicle. Use the provided vehicle identification tools or consult your owner's manual. Key specifications to check include the engine code (D420T8) and the year/model of your VOLVO (V60 Mk2 2020+, V90 Mk2 2020+, XC60 Mk2 2019+).
Installation: Installation of glow plugs should ideally be performed by a qualified mechanic. The process involves accessing the glow plugs, which are typically located on the cylinder head. Old glow plugs may be seized, requiring careful removal to avoid damaging the cylinder head. New glow plugs should be installed with the correct torque settings and, if specified, anti-seize compound.
Care: Glow plugs are wear-and-tear items and do not require regular maintenance beyond ensuring they are functioning correctly. However, it is important to ensure the engine's cooling system is functioning properly, as overheating can potentially stress glow plugs. Regular engine maintenance, including checking for any diagnostic trouble codes related to the starting system, is recommended.
