Cheap glow plugs are bad news, especially it seems in these engines. They either don't heat up sufficiently or die very quickly. Stick to Delphi, NGK or Bosch.

If you pull a cheap plug out, it will probably break as your doing it... so your in a whole heap of hurt, and cursing why you didn't spend the extra £ instead of 1/2 a day getting the crap ones out, get good makes, it pays in the end
