MEYLE AG has geared up for the winter season with a range of around 130 MEYLE-ORIGINAL glow plugs for all standard applications. 

In addition, the company also provides around 60 glow-time control unit kits in MEYLE-ORIGINAL quality, which include the control unit and the appropriate glow plugs.

To prevent defects and wear, the MEYLE-ORIGINAL glow plugs are produced in accordance with OEM specifications, which includes the use of heat-resistant metal and twin heating coil technology. Use of top quality materials and optimally tuned components ensure the specified afterglow temperature of MEYLE-ORIGINAL glow plugs can be precisely maintained. This reduces exhaust emissions considerably, and is good for the environment.

MEYLE says Glow plugs should be replaced every 80,000 to 100,000 kilometres, to prevent malfunction due to wear. Worn glow plugs may cause serious starting problems, especially during cold temperatures in the autumn and winter months.

There are many reasons why a glow plug does not function properly: in addition to ageing-related wear, incorrect installation, a defective control unit or inadequate processing of glow plugs may be reasons for defects. This can result in deformed, broken or burst glow plugs which may give rise to expensive consequential damages. For example, it may not be possible to remove the glow plugs or, in the worst case, parts of the glow plug may enter the cylinder and cause damage to it.

MEYLE recommends that all glow plugs be replaced at the same time. The control unit should also be checked when replacing the glow plugs and when replacing the control unit, all glow plugs should also be replaced.

MEYLE and MEYLE HD parts are available from stockist nationwide and are distributed in Ireland by Strongline Autoparts. For more information
