Change the glow plugs on a Citroen C4 Grand Picasso

Model: Citroen C4 Picasso MK 1 - Years 2006-2013
Part: Glow plugs

Changing the glow plugs on a Citroen C4 Grand Picasso? Start by opening the engine bay. Pull the lever to open the engine bay located at the bottom left of the dashboard and lift the front bonnet. Remove the soundproofing panel covering the engine. Detach the air intake pipe to access the glow plugs. Grip the coil with your hands and twist it until it comes out of the cylinder head (unscrew the screws on the sides). Use a socket to unscrew all damaged glow plugs. Take the new glow plug and insert it into the cylinder head using the socket. Refit the plastic cover panel. Start and test the C4 vehicle.
