Glow Plugs 2.0 CDTI S/S
First of all, HOW MUCH !!!!!

My Astra has had the SVS message for a few months now, originally Cylinder #3, and now #4 also. I guess by not replacing the one first, the others are over compensating for the one thats down and has knocked out #4 also.

Anyway, typically with discounts at ECP they are around £11-£18 each.
OH NO.

This one is going to cost me £80 each !!

Really, for a blooming glow plug?

3 out of 4 glow plugs
Hello 

I get a SvS fault when I start the car. I used a multimeter to measure the resistance of the glow plugs and one was not working, so I am betting the SvS is a faulty glow plug.

Will the electric current overload the 3 working ones, so they will fail soon? So I need to replace all of them asap? And will a car with 3/4 working glow plugs start fine in really cold weather like -15 Celsius?

Regards
