glow plug

Quick question for the master tech and guru: no guessing, please. Is there any conceivable relationship between an implausible glow plug three error, a DSG shifting lag, and an occasional delay transmission shunt from a 2016 Bluemotion tech 150? It feels like there COULD be a shift relay in the...

Hi All, First time poster here so please bare with me and apologies for any ignorance in advance. Appreciate any thoughts/insights anyone can offer. I am looking for some advice on the likely state of my fuel system after uncovering a plethora of issues and fault codes. Purchased my T6.1 LWB...

Hello everyone, can someone please help me out. I need to test this relay and there is no electrical schematic diagram printed on this relay. Does anyone have an electrical schematic diagram? Kind Regards, Catbus

Not sure if this is the correct terminology so apologies. We’ve had our 2017 van for a couple of months now, but noticed on cold starts sometimes the van cranks when you turn the key for up to 5 seconds and then fires up. It ALWAYS fires up, but I would like it to fire up as soon as I turn the...

Hi everyone, I've been told by a mechanic that it's ok to replace the glow plug with the sensor with one without. So all 3 glow plugs will be the same. He said he was advised by VW on this. It seems wrong to me. Is this correct?

I’ve got an Engine warning light on the dash, on inspection it’s given me PO671 - bank one glow plugs, but it’s also flagging up P204F and P20EE, these relate to the reductant system performance and catalyst efficiency of bank one. Is it possible that the faulty glow plug is causing the...

Greetings, can anyone tell me the part no for the ‘glow plug control module’ on a 2016 euro 6 t6 2.0 tdi 150? CXHA. I want to replace as I have had a few intermittent errors relating to the module under the battery tray. But on visiting several parts websites I get different results and totally...

Hi, Randomly getting the orange engine dash warning on my 2020 T6 204hp. I can clear it with Carista and the engine warning lamp disappears. Not getting any limp mode or anything. The fault code is suggesting open circuit / fault on cylinder 1 glow plug, but I am not experiencing any issues...

Hi all, I've had a flashing orange glow plug light for a couple of weeks. And possibly or possibly not related, start stop errors. Plugging in Carista reveals 16056 fault code, which after googling, seems to relate to an oil pressure sensor. Hoping to rule out some quick fixes before...

Good day I was hoping to find some help here, since local mechanics are not making headway. Friend of mine recently bought a 2012 Transporter T5 with 200k Km on the clock. He did some long trips since then and all was good. On his last trip hope the glow plug indicator started flashing and...

Hi guys, bit of help needed. I have a T6 kombi, I've changed all the lights to LED and added some LED spotlights too. Problem I have is, they don't stay on for long enough when I open the tailgate. Literally a few seconds. Is this something I can change with VCDS? TIA

I have downloaded the removal guide (thanks) for torque and identification of the failing plug. Has anyone changed a glow plug themselves, I'm just wondering about the best way to remove the intercooler to get to the plugs. Don't really want to drop all the water if i can help it, just...

Recently I've notice when I turn the key to start my van, nothing happens for a few seconds. I'm turning the key and then releasing it straight away, whilst keeping my foot on the clutch the engine will start to crank after 3-4seconds. When it starts to crank, it instantly starts. Once warm, it...

hi guys my van has been parked up for a few weeks and when I drove it yesterday and noticed that when driving the coil light was flashing ? I turned engine off and re started it but the light was still flashing ! Does anyone know what’s wrong ? The van started and drove fine tia

Got an issue with glow plug light flashing. Showing fault code p200600 intake manifold runner control bank 1 stuck open. Garage said they have contacted vw and they are working on a software clear. The t6 is a may 2019 high line 150 Bhp. This is the second time this fault has occurred. The van...

I have a engine management light coming on my VW Transporter 2018 plate, "Sensor for Internal Pressure of Cylinder 3 Implausible Signal". The code that comes up is P13D600 It's still under manufacturers warranty, will it be covered or will I have to pay to get it fixed?

Hi. I'm new to the forum and just purchased my first T6 (Had a T5 for years) Hope someone might be able to help to resolve a problem? I've just purchased a Stolen / Recovered 2016 Kombi from an insurance company. It's only done 20,000 miles, in reasonably good condition too. Basically, the van...

Hi all The engine management light is coming , after doing a diagnostic it appears that no 3 glow plug has given up. Has anyone experienced the same and changed the glow plug? Wondering what sort of job it was ? KR Bear

Morning. New to the group and looking at buying my first conversion. Found a 2018 t6 highline on monday with only 44500 miles for the bargain price of £15,495 due the salesman forgetting to add VAT. Only problem was when I jumped in and fired it up the van started to rock slightly so I popped...
