Re: Starting the Motor
Excuse me, but which engine is this? I take it that diesel is being implied by the use of glow plugs?

Leaks in the fuel...

Re: Insurance, huh?
They must be making it up as they go along, since I now truly believe that. Over the past decade, I'd been content to do the yearly "dance" with LV with their multi-car insurance, up until a few years ago. My options for insurance on the Bentley were severely limited when I purchased it be...

Re: W639 perplexing glow plug issues
Every glow plug I've ever used has had the voltage printed on it.

Re: W639 perplexing glow plug issues
Glow plugs come with two different voltage ratings.
Regardless of the plugs you've used, make sure the controller is compatible.
Proceed with caution when verifying diagnostic output. With time, the voltage at the output should decrease.
