I have a 2013 Jetta TDI. I finally got my fuel system replaced after my high pressure fuel pump disintegrated sending metal shards through my fuel system. Also had my flywheel replaced because it started rattling.
Now my glow plug indicator light is flashing on my dash but engine starts fine with no delay. My wife was flowing me home after I picked up my car from the shop and said she saw a little black smoke coming from my exhaust. Would me replacing my glow plugs make light go off or would it be relay or timer issue?

The flashing glow plug light is usually an indication (alert) of an issue. Scan for stored codes.
