'01 Golf: Replace Glow Plugs?
My 2001 Golf has about 131,000 miles on it. For a few months I've had a CEL on it. A friend ran VAGCOM and it looked like it was some weird voltage in the glowplug/harness region. The car starts and runs fine, so I don't know if the glow plugs are at fault.
I'm going to bring the car in to my local independent mechanic on Tuesday for routine maintenance, and have him change out the harness. Should I also replace the glow plugs?
Thank you.
