What Glow Plugs Do You Recommend?

Post by Doo »

As per the title, what Glow Plugs do you recommend for a 2007 Citroën C4 1.6hdi?

I know cheapest is not even sensible, but then the dearest aren't either... All I want is a good make that members feel they will deliver the best service.

Thanks all

As some will know, I fixed wife's car and warned her that after the Smart For Four, the Citroën will feel like a rocket ship. I warned her NOT to floor the pedal (the gear change on the for four can be timed using a calendar...).

Anyway, I txt her earlier to ask if there were any issues with the Citroën? He reply made me laugh.

"Too fast!" :rofl2:

That's all the praise I needed :-D
Has anyone seen the plot? :?

It seems to be Beru for PSA engines.
No idea why but others either don't seem to perform as well and/or don't last very long.
They don't seem to be particularly expensive, not that I have ever had to buy any - a good sign I think.
