#1: 1.4 hdi glow plug light? Author: peterhdi, Location: bradford PostPosted: Mon Dec 13, 2010 6:02 pm

Was coming on for the first week i had the car?
No problems in starting, and i always give it a min or two before i crank it, is it just the dash bulb maybe?-common fault?? Just wanna check before i pull the odometer cluster out.

The light only comes on when the outside temp is 3 degrees or below.

Also if it s warm enough it just flashes on then off, doesn't stay there for very long ;).
Does it start first time all the time?

Not on mine it doesnt, the only time my g/plug light shows itself is when the outside temp is below 3 degrees, otherwise it stays totally off

Exactly the same on mine and that's exactly how it should operate Smile
