Glow plugs, removing and installing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1996 Volkswagen Jetta. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Tightening torque: 25 Nm (18 ft lb)

NOTE:
  • The 25 Nm (18 ft lb) tightening torque must not be exceeded, or the gap between the glow plug electrode and the threaded section will be squeezed together. This may cause the glow plugs to fail prematurely.
  • If no malfunction is found and the engine is still hard to start, the glow plugs should be examined while glowing (with the Fuel Injectors removed).
