240d glowplugs issue
 
I just replaced one glowplug that wasn't lighting up. The car still has a very hard time starting. All of the plugs get voltage and the other 3 were working a week ago(will check them again later I guess).
The glowplug light n the dash is not lighting up and the battery is fully charged.

Any ideas??

If the light is not working you've most likely got one or more bad glowplugs.

Just replaced the second plug and started right up! Should I replace the other 2 or you ussually do them 1 at the time. I will probably do the other 2 since I got a box of 10 glowplugs from autozone.. when I only paid for 1. The diesel god smiles at me.

I hope you got Bosch or the diesel gods are playing one hell of a mean prank.
