    Torque setting for installing new glow plugs is 15nm (11ft lbs). Don't over tighten as they are steel plugs into an aluminium engine.

    You were lucky that they came out that easy Rob. Normally a pain in the arse to get out and they snap easily. Best to clean out the port and soak with WD40 for an hour or so be fore trying to remove them. Even give the 10mm socket a light tap with a hammer while sitting on the glow plug before trying to remove too. If those bad boys snap, you're talking big money to get them drilled out.

    Hi Rob.
    I’ve got the very same car with 125k miles on the clock and every now and then it would struggle to start. The ignition will go on, when I try starting up the car it will crank, crank and crank and either eventually start or switch off.
    Did you experience anything similiar? If so, I will change my glow plugs too. By the way your video is brilliant 👏

    Thanks a lot. Will do it by myself. Looks easy. Only afraid about tighting without special key(dinamometric). How to make correct power((?. Also have a Carista shows 1 cylinder error. Also 3 cylinder with special candle with pressure-meter (100€). God bless its only one)). But question is it normal to change only 1 candle or i have to do 1,2,4 at the same time? Check shows its only 1st cylinder. Mechanics says to change all candles at once(((.

    Very useful - thanks. I had one replaced in my Passat (also B8) at about 70k miles. There was a non-specific warning on the dash (orange engine light) but no other info. The dealer diagnosed the plug as faulty. Came here because I suspect another may have gone, but will check the plugs for electrical continuity before removing anything.

    • @rrobbiebeach

      Hi Emre. I replaced them when it got colder and engine took longer to start. Car has 210K-KMs. If your car starts OK when cold engine no need to replace the glow plugs. Torque them nice and snug.
