  • Replacing The Glow Plugs On My High Mileage Audi A6 C6 Avant 3.0 TDI V6 ASB
    Hello guys, welcome back to Car Obsession and welcome back to 'Ewan', my high mileage Audi A6 C6 Avant. As you can tell by the title, in this video I'm replacing the glow plugs to cure a recent engine management light that has come on and won't go away.
    After doing a code scan (and further testing) I found that the glow plugs on cylinders 3, 4, 5 and 6 are defective, so it made sense to replace the set in case cylinders 1 and 2 cause an issue in the future.
    Although this is not designed as a 'How To' video, if you do happen to learn something that's an added bonus, but please bear in mind I'm NOT a trained mechanic. Therefore, anything you copy from this video is at your own risk.

    Good evening everybody! Thanks for dropping in on my latest maintenance video - granted it's not going to be riveting viewing for some of you, but I wanted to document this job. Also, there's not many videos on replacing glow plugs for the ASB engine, so although this is not strictly a 'how to' video, it may prove useful to some of you 👍🏽.

    Hi, would you know if this is the same 3.0 TDI they put in the 2012 Touareg? We just had to replace 2 glow plugs, and the dealer charged $700. I'd like to change the others out myself, but I don't have a lot of experience with her VW.

      I don't believe so, but I could be wrong.

      @@CarObsession thanks for the quick response. Would you know if all the glow plugs have to have the pressure sensor, or only one per engine, or one per side? Sorry for all the questions!

      Hi there, thanks for watching, and thanks for the comment. After a quick Google (not always the most effective way to treat fault codes), the code you have provided doesn't seem to relate to the glow plugs or the relay. I'd recommend booking the car in for a diagnostic as a fault code doesn't always tell the full story.
