Do you want to remove the glow plugs on a Mercedes E-Class and don't know how? Let's see in this detailed video how to proceed with the removal. Pull the engine hood release lever located on the bottom left of the dashboard and lift the front hood, securing it. Remove the soundproofing panel that covers the engine.

Use a socket wrench to unscrew the glow plug, pull it out of the cylinder head (perform the same operation on the other glow plugs). Take the new glow plug and insert it into the cylinder head using the socket wrench.
