Is there a way in VCDS to adjust the Glow Time. I feel I need a bit more than the 1-2 seconds I am getting. Two glow cycles seems to help, weather here hoovering around 0*C and can drop significantly.
The light comes on immediately on key cycle so those would have to be some pretty fast plugs.
I think the light is indicating that the plugs are operating and warming up but I don't have the manual here in front of me at the moment.
What VeeDubTDI said. The GPs will stay on for a period of time after the GP light goes out. No need to cycle the key to get extra glow time.The light is a suggestion, and does not indicate actual glow plug operation. The glow plugs will continue to run for a period of time even after the light has turned off. You can test this yourself by listening to the glow plug relay, watching battery voltage, or monitoring with VCDS.
