Sorry to be a pain, but I've been through the existing posts and can't find what I'm after.
This morning I got in my '99 E300TD, turned the key, let the glow plug warning go out and fired the motor. It started first time as usual, but was real lumpy and noisy and the glow warning light came back on again. I gave it a few rpms for a couple of minutes or so and it gradually settled down and the warning lamp went out.
Am I to assume a glow plug has failed, or something more sinister ? I'd like some opinions before I break out the spanners .......
Thanks.
