01 TDI 5 Speed
Weather has recently dipped below freezing and Jetta has become hard to start. Then the other day I got a CEL for glow plugs. I changed those out with some new bosch ones and light went off but still starts very hard and lots of smoke and seems to stumble. When I turn the key the glow plug light comes on but goes out almost instantly. I replaced the temp sensor this summer so I doubt that is the cause. Last winter when cold it would stay on for at least a few seconds. Any idea where to go from here. Thanks
