Glow Plugs These Can Go Really Wrong

[@jwtelt]

When Skoda replaced 2 of my glow plugs under warranty they wouldn't do all 4. If you remember i enquired with you about replacing the other 2 and i did it myself thanks to your advice.

Yeah buddy I remember well and warranty is exactly that matey they only replace the failed item and nothing else

Whats your thoughts on a vw timing belt lasting for 140k miles or the life of the car? Thats the new vwag recommend intervals. I really appreciate your vids. Keep them coming. I watch them all!

Hey buddy Thankyou so much for the support it really does mean a lot to me and for me personally I don’t like the idea of 140k intervals they don’t sit well with me at all at the end of the day they can make they belt out of whatever and reinforce it with whatever but they are still made with rubber and nothing lasts forever

You would think they would do what Ford did and say 10 years or 100,000

Use a deWalt 3/8 cordless buzz gun for glow plugs just enough to rattle loose and not snap 👍

@zakshipley3250 thanks for the information buddy but not at any point will a use any electronic tool on a glow plug :)

Buddy what's the best engine oil for vw tsi 1.0 (2020) models

You would need to call up your local dealer and they can look on your chassis number as they are all different depending on location
