Gents,

So I have an 83 300d turbo, chassis w123. Can someone provide me the correct part number for the Beru glow plugs?

Would the correct Beru plugs be the GV, the GE/GN, or the GD style?

Here are the three part numbers I have for Beru thus far:

1.
Part Number: W0133-1631189
Notes: Type GE/GN

2.
Part Number: W0133-1715016
Notes: Type GE/GN
Features:
Super quick start glow plugs in new, slim shape
Extremely short pre-heating time: from 2 seconds
Reliable starting (even at -30C)
Can be used for post-heating, as a result environmentally friendly: up to 40% less pollutant emissions during the warm up phase
No more cold start knocking
Quieter engine running
Protects the engine during starting

3.
Part Number: W0133-1633192
Notes: Type GV
Product Remark: GV
Features:
Sheathed glow plug in 2-coil technology
Reliable cold starting
Short pre-heating time (5-7 seconds depending on vehicle!)


------------------
Going onto Beru's US distributor's website provided me a glow plug with a loop at the tip, so that's not what I'm going for in my car. Also, older threads on this site show the Beru's being sold right here on Peach Parts, but the links are broken now.


I finally decided to go ahead and ream the glow plug chambers, and that no matter what the condition of the plugs I remove, I'm going to change them. I read some stuff on here about how Monarks aren't great and Bosch's are okay but they are a crapshoot as to where they were manufactured, and I prefer stuff made in Germany. I recently bought a Bosch alternator regulator, which was made in China--I promptly returned them. Never had a problem with Bosch anything in the past, but heard good things about the Beru, so here I am asking about the part numbers


Thanks,

Sev
