Looks like GPs number 1,3, 4 are all bad.
The intake manifold ends up being fairly painless to remove on the NA version, not sure about the turbo.
3 simple rules have had successful results in changing w210 glow plugs
1) Warm engine
2) Lots of PB Blaster
3) Use a torque wrench to remove and don't go over 50 Nm
If the plugs don't budge at 50Nm, spray with more PB Blaster, walk away, enjoy a beverage for 30 or 60 mintues and go back and try again. Repeat as needed, but be careful on how many beverages you have.
I buy my GPs online.
