Sorry for the delay, the post got missed.

 

J179 Glow Plug Control Unit also known as a Relay

Sits in the E box in engine bay

 

 

 

Pay attention to the part ordering, as you can see, it was dropped on 01/04/2017 for part number 04L 907 282 B

Brilliant, thank you!

Welcome to the forum, noticed you are new user

the glow plug in cylinder 1 just failed on me :( 

 

Has been fixed by dealer the next day for £64, so happy with that

Mine was the control unit, I did check glow plugs first and all okay so brought control unit from main dealer for £115 and replaced myself, all okay since then.

Hi Everyone.

 

I had this error this morning...4984 - Cylinder 1 Glow Plug Circuit (Q10) P0671 00 [237] - Electrical Fault

 

I read, somewhere here in the forum, that one of the plugs have a different size... I just looked up Bosch (as I heard they are the factory installed ones) an even the full set has the same sizes... Is this a wrong info, if not any, OEN part number for the "one"?

 

thanks in advance.

3 are the same, the 4th has a pressure sensor and is a hell of a lot more expensive. 

 

I do believe cylinder 1 is a standard glow plug though. Cylinder 3 has the pressure sensor.

 

 

EDIT: If you can supply a vin/engine code i can tell you exactly what ones you require. Also OE fitting is Borgwarner, Hidria, NGK or Bosch
