Title: 1.9 TDI Glow Plugs
Post by: ALIAHMET on August 26, 2015, 06:55:39 pm

Hi Guys

I'm in need of some help.

I plan to service my 1.9 TDI myself, and plan to replace the glow plugs as they have never been replaced.

What size deep socket is needed to replace the glow plugs?

It looks like it could be a 12mm deep socket but not sure.

I only have a 16mm deep socket, which is too big. Need to purchase the correct size

Excellent, saves me from going back and forth trying to guess the correct size.

Much appreciated the link to show me how

Thanks
