Thanks, I had the same code, same cylinder, it cleared itself after a good bit of time, after I was all set to pull and replace the glow plug. the fault never affected the starting noticeably. Same engine, same year. Now I have an intermittent pressure sensor issue, your info was super helpful. I just reseated the connectors as it runs okay. Nice work.

Quick way to check without even moving the engine cover is by quickly removing the glow plug relay in the fuse box under the bonnet. All four pins can be checked from the relay socket. Also proves the cables to the glow plugs are good too.

I have mk6 jetta tdi that just recently showed glow plug and engine compression fault. I replaced all the plugs with new. However, the new all looked alike. They all have the "castle" looking top. The glow plug fault is now gone, but I am still getting a cylinder pressure fault. It runs flawlessly, quick, fast, with no stutter to the engine. Just the pesky compression code. Any ideas? Did I use the wring glow plugs on 2-4? I'm feeling lost!

Hi amazing video definately subscribing! Quick question, I have a MK7 GTD and recently had all 4 glow plugs changed but didn’t put the glow plug with the pressure sensor in and now there is a check engine light and also says cylinder 3 compression fault on the reader. Will putting the pressure sensor glow plug in the correct place (cylinder 3) fix the issue? And would you recommend an Amazon purchase for the glow plug? And where would I find the correct glow plug size and spec? Thank you
