2003 Volkswagen Golf Diesel Glow Plugs

Starting a diesel engine? Check out Autolite glow plugs. They’re dependable and long-lasting, the perfect plug for a variety of diesel applications. Diesel engines depend on high heat in the combustion chamber to ignite the fuel. When you cold start a diesel engine, there isn’t enough heat to ignite. Autolite glow plugs warm the combustion chamber to start the fuel ignition, reaching temperatures hot enough to start in 30 seconds or less. If you’re experiencing problems starting your diesel engine, it may have burnt out glow plugs. For dependability and long-lasting performance, use Autolite glow plugs.

NGK metal glow plugs are trusted by OEM diesel engine manufacturers around the world to perform under the harshest conditions. NGK metal glow plugs are equipped with a heating coil in a glow rod made of heat-resistant magnesium oxide between the heating and regulating coils. Magnesium oxide is an outstanding thermal conductor (quickly dissipating heat), while protecting the heating coils from vibration and shock. NGK metal glow plugs feature excellent gas-tight sealing qualities that deliver superior electrical insulation and protection against combustion gas. NGKs metal composition helps reduce carbon accumulation to prevent short circuits, while the unique shell design provides excellent heat transfer.

Product Features:

• ACTUAL OE or EQUIVALENT DESIGN: OEM quality construction metal glow plug
• SUPERIOR DURABILITY: Metal glow plugs are designed to withstand thermal shock due to quick changes in temperature
• FAST HEATING PERFORMANCE: Fast heat up enables smooth engine starts even in extreme weather conditions
• CLEAN PERFORMANCE: Constant afterglow temperature minimize noxious pollutants
• RECOMMENDED USAGE: Best for diesel engines with OE metal glow plugs
• Trusted by OEM Diesel Engine Manufacturers: NGK metal glow plugs are the preferred choice of original equipment manufacturers (OEM) for diesel engines worldwide, ensuring reliable performance under the harshest conditions.
• Superior Thermal Conductivity: Equipped with a heating coil in a glow rod made of heat-resistant magnesium oxide, these glow plugs quickly dissipate heat while protecting the heating coils from vibration and shock.
• Excellent Gas-Tight Sealing: NGK metal glow plugs feature superior gas-tight sealing qualities, providing excellent electrical insulation and protection against combustion gas.
• Reduced Carbon Accumulation: The metal composition of NGK glow plugs helps reduce carbon build-up, preventing short circuits and ensuring long-lasting performance.
• Unique Shell Design for Optimal Heat Transfer: The unique shell design of NGK metal glow plugs ensures excellent heat transfer, enhancing the overall efficiency and reliability of the diesel engine.

BREMI RapidEnergy glow plugs feature a sophisticated and proven design corresponding to the high OE standards. BREMI RapidEnergy glow plugs are exclusively manufactured from high quality materials and components proven in serial production. All BREMI RapidEnergy glow plugs are comprehensively tested prior to shipment. BREMI RapidEnergy glow plugs are powerful and highly durable quality products manufactured under competitive conditions and tuned to the production processes of international automotive manufacturers. Power and durability are the key criteria that make BREMI RapidEnergy glow plugs the natural choice when looking for a quality product. BREMI glow plugs offer efficient fuel consumption, enhanced environmental friendliness and improved driving comfort. BREMI RapidEnergy glow plugs deliver an optimum starting performance of the engine through sophisticated design and manufacturing expertise as well as the usage of high quality materials and components validated in countless serial applications.

Product Features:

• The double helix technology enables short heat up times, optimum after glow performance and a particularly high durability.
• A perfectly smooth milling process in the glow plug manufacturing process avoids malfunctions during operation and ensures a perfect assembly/mounting of the glow plug in the cylinder head.
• The cylindrical tapered shape of the glow tip reduces the heat up time.
• A piston ring between the metal body and the heating rod prevents thermal transfer from the heating rod to the metal body.
• The assembly method by thread or plug connection meets serial manufacturers requirements.
• Premium quality materials to OE standards and a precise layout of both heating and control coilsensure the glow plugs high durability and a continuous compliance with the glow parameters.
• The purity level of the filling material (MgO) and its optimum densification as well as an airtight sealing after the filling process prevent malfunctions of the glow rod (example: Bloating of the glow rod).
• The concentrical position of the glow coil in the heating rod avoids short circuits
• The efficiency of BREMI RapidEnergy glow plugs is mainly defined by the number of cold start cycles specified by the vehicle manufacturers.
• A low variance of key parameters such as temperature range and heat up time is of particular importance for engine start up.
• The use of high quality materials and components proven in serial applications is the key to the high durability of the BREMI RapidEnergy glow plugs.
• Ageing resistance focusing on temperature stability is guaranteed throughout the complete life cycle.

Bosch Duraterm Glow Plug Technology With a long history of diesel fuel injection expertise and innovation, Bosch leads the way in glow plug technology with its patented Duraterm dual-control coil design. This technology utilizes a self-regulating system that reduces glow wait time by more than 50%. The patented dual control regulating and heating coil system effectively directs current draw, enabling the glow plug to reach higher temperatures more quickly for faster engine start-up. For vehicles with a post-glow control system, this advanced technology results in a post-glow heating phase which allows for more efficient overall engine performance.

Product Features:

• Glow plug reaches higher temperatures more quickly for fast engine start-up
• Regulating coil controls current draw for rapid heat-up of heating coil
• Heating coil provides rapid heat-up of the glow tube and quick start-up
• Glow tube material resists corrosion and vibration for long service life
• Fine-grained ceramic insulating powder provides superior electrical insulation and high thermal conductivity
• Twin Viton seals protect coils from exhaust gas damage for long life
• Connectors designed to OE specifications precise fit and easy installation
