Today we will explain to you with the help of this video tutorial how to replace the glow plugs of the 2007 Volkswagen Golf model 5. We start the replacement by opening the engine hood and removing the engine cover, removing the cover bracket, using car lubricant we unscrew the glow plugs counterclockwise. After removing them, we insert the new glow plugs well lubricated with grease before screwing them in. We mount the bracket and the engine cover once the procedure is finished.
