Hi All,

recently replaced injectors after a refurb, going to do the glowplugs next as I'm in there, then everything is done at the same time. I was going to go with Turner Engineering, they stock Behru OEM @ about £52 all in with the vat or I can get some genuine Bosch ones for £37 all in. I would be inclined to go with Turner as they specialise in rebuilds, but I would have thought Bosch is best to go with?

What have others used and recommend?

Thanks

Cheapest ones money can buy in both my 200s, 12 quid for 4 rings a bell?

Edit just looked and they are now 10 quid for four!
Cheap to buy.
Proper easy to fit.
Been in both cars for well over 5/6 years now, and still work.

Bosch or Beru are both equally good, same with Turner's as a highly reputable supplier. You may like to search for lower pricing but be wary of fake Bosch/Beru copies.

As above some engines need decent glow plugs but the 200tdi isnt one of them. Cheap ones with a tiny dab of anti-seize would be my choice

Mine aren't even hooked up to any power. Nor on my last 200Tdi (was in a Series) and that one would start fine in minus 5 degrees.

Whilst it is true that a 200 will start in pretty much any weather conditions, you will a make life easier if you have working plugs.

There's a reason why Land Rover designed-in the use of a glow plug per cylinder
