I’ve looked online and found there are 2 types, one with pressure sensors and one without. How do you find out what type my car has?
Thanks in advance

IIRC, when I had the SVS message, it was glow plug No.2 that failed. It was the more expensive pressure sensor plugs. Mine doesn't have start/stop. Again, IIRC, the garage told me that 2 of the plugs are pressure ones, the other 2 are the cheaper ones.
