Glow plugs are only used to start a cold engine after the engine has started the glow plugs shut down.

What would really help is knowing the fault codes as we can then advise further.

So what can i check to hopefully get this rectified??

Its a bit embarassing sitting outside shops and work with a newish car that wont start just turning over.

Is there a temp sensor (Water / Oil) that could be misreporting making the glow plugs non responsive?

Could i attached a bulb to the glowplug wire to see if it is getting power and for how long?

Thank You, Mark
