V50 glow plugs
Hi folks, is it just me or is changing glow plugs in an '08 V50 2.0l a state secret. I have searched high and low and still can't find anywhere that details how to do this. Have had a look at the engine and can see where the plugs are but cannot figure out how to extract them. Is there anyone out there who knows how to do it, otherwise it's of to the main dealer and out a fortune for labour costs. Thanks, Davy

Hopefully someone like Clan (forum member) will be along soon and can give you the info you seek. If not give him a PM and ask him, he's a nice chap.
I've got a petrol V50 so have not seen where the plugs are in the your diesel, maybe you can take a picture so we can see? Most other deisels are pretty straight forward in that you remove an electrical wire/connection and then unscrew the plug. If you can see them then that is half the battle. I'll have a look on Vida later. |

Bump, I was wondering the same, can't find out anything other than people saying you shouldn't need to replace them!

Thanks, you looking at swapping the intercooler? How big a job do you recon it will be? Is it just bumper off?
