Hi all
First post here so be gentle, and yes I am a girly !!
I have a beloved W124 300D which has just clocked 300,000 miles, and I love her but I have just had a problem with my glow plug light on the dash, it now doesn't come on until AFTER the car has started, and then for 1 minute. With a bit of searching I know what this means and I have gone through the whole of the tests on this site: Mercedes Diesel Glow Plug Repair (apart from removing the plugs)
Doing these tests told me that No.4 and No.6 glow plugs, or their wires, are bad. What I can't understand is how can 2 go at exactly the same time? I just don't believe in coincidence
Any ideas would be very welcome to a very confused bear !
Also I am trying to think of anything rather than getting the plugs out (nightmare apparently)
Sorry it was so long and thanks for any help
