    Is it a simple job to replace a set of glow plugs?

    Not sure if they are any good but easy job to do. 15 mins tops. You may have to remove a section of metal pipe going up to the turbo as it restricts you getting in. But easy job

    the big circle is the piece you may have to remove the refit to get in the little ones are roughly the glow plug positions.

    To add to this make sure you have the right type and size box spanner/socket
    as it needs to seat snugly onto the glow plug..people have rounded the flats on the glows,leading to problems getting them out.
