glow plugs?
When I have the key in the position prior to turning the car on and all the instrument lights come on, the glow plug light does not come on. The engine starts but is horribly rough at idle and sometimes cuts off. Do I need to change my glow plugs? Luckily its hot here.

Adiaw 83,
Why doesn't the light works? The symptoms you discribe indicates your engine starts without glowing. So I recommand a search on this site before replacing anything. It's an expencive experience replacing something on a MB to find out the trouble not to be resolved! Good luck and share with us your experience! Danny |

Adiaw,
Do a search on GP. There are many posts on GP in these BBs. It sounds like you GP are not working at all because of something other than the GP. Do the tests you will find in a search. P E H |
