- Glow Plug Removal, Ford Mondeo Mk5 2L Diesel, finally got around to removing a set of glow plugs, these engines can be found in various vehicles, ford, peugeot, volvo, citroen to name a few.
I love how you explain things so beginners can understand. Brilliant stuff! I didnt know that there was a plug with independent cables to the plugs, I need to test mine because it is a bit slow starting in the cold.
Such a simple video yet so much fun from watching it 😁👍 and no doubt some hard work was put in to make it! Thank you Alan!
I've been soaking my plugs for 2 weeks before they finally eased off and came out. Would not try pushing it.
Been waiting for this 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I’ve snapped so many 😤😤😤 - if your bored Alan you can always demonstrate how you bleed the dreaded rear fuel filter on the MK 4
That would be a great video as I know the mk2 focus has the same problem
Great job Alan ,Thank You👍🙏🙂
cheers pat
Thanks Alan,enjoyed that little exercise
Thank you Alan. Clearly, the MK5 2L is a great performance engine. Sadly however, the engine flow and layout must’ve been designed by a sadist gynaecologist or proctologist with all various engine parts located in very tight areas, requiring multiple removal to carry simple replacement of minor parts. Here in shitville (Straya) I have a 2016 Ford Kuga with the same great performance engine. Recently, I had to remove the front bumper-bar to replace the park light, and the front wiper & t its apron to replace the battery. They took frigging hours. Bloody sadist design by gynaecologist ...........I am sure of that………..
thanks once again for the all the great efforts you put in these wonderful educational clips.
Thanks Alan, it has to be said that they are easier to do with engine out. I had a MK2 Granada with a 2ltr diesel in it ( it was non turbo and slow, very very slow) i decided to do the glowplugs on it. Tight !!!! In the end i took it for a drive and they came out with a hot engine, mind you there was plenty of room in an engine bay in those days.
Top info there as always. Nice to see they came out nice and in 1 bit. When putting the new pkugs in I dont that a small smidge of copper grease anti sieze compound on the plug threads would go a miss.
For those that don't have a torque wrench 6nm is about half an uga duga
🤣🤣🤣
I swapped an 1800 Audi A4 engine a few years ago for another which looked identical but had a different code. It started up but had no power. Turned out that a different engine code needed a different ECU.
Thank you Alan for another instructive video! Based on your previous videos I got the confidence to replace myself, preventively the timing chain. and guess what? Injector number 4 snaped and the lower part remained inside the cylinder head.😂🤣 It was so corroded... I am amazed the specialists I called over were able to extract it. Did this happen to you? See the video I made about it on my channel.
Diesel overrun cannot be at all funny when it's happening but it's funny AF when hearing about it after!
Thank you for so much, I learned a lot from you. Thank you
Take care at work, hubby..and be careful of ur finger, im gonna put a ring on it 🥰
My saturday night sorted..... Glow plug removal vid......😅😅
can we not get moni...to do like a walk through..
say hi..
Thanks alan..
always make us smile.....

A very informative video Alan.Would like another video showing how you strip and potentially repair this engine.Engine has taken a shit, love that expression,lol.
Cheers Alan....
I tend to use a 1/4 drive socket set for glow plugs, if they won't budge with that, normally they are well stuck. Some different theories between letting the engine get stone cold or whilst it's hot when getting them out. Little bit of ceramic grease for the new ones when they go in the head.
What's your overall thoughts on the 2.0 PSA engine?
I've had the different variants of the 2.0 hdi over many years and i have to say, they have been trouble free and reliable but i delete all egrs, dpfs etc so that may help.
The earlier 2.0 RHF engine glow plugs are at the back by the turbo, and they are a pain in the arse to get out, all done by feel. Great video Alan
Great video as always Alan. One thing to add - my 2015 C-Max 2.0 diesel reads ~3v on the supply side of the plug connector. A quick search online suggests that this is expected for engines since 2012. But since you see a lot more of these engines then I ever will, have you ever measured it directly?
What a palaver! Almost makes me glad that mine has the 1.8 Lynx engine. Almost....
Not all glow plugs are 12v, worth remembering.
Thanks Alan
Quick response :)
I had a Citoen xantia once ,glow plug behind the injector pump ,i left it and did the other 3 .aint nobody got time for that😆
THANKIOU
Silly question I am sure but what's the purpose of a glow plug? Would love to see this engine get stripped down. Thanks!
Diesel engines use the high compression in the cylinders to ignite the fuel unlike petrol engines which use a spark plug but diesel fuel does not like cold cylinders so the glow plugs help put some heat into the cylinders which helps ignite and atomise the fuel better
Alan as you are the all knowing god of ford mondeo 2.0 diesels , could you tell me what is a reasonable compression , ive getting 330 psi to 400 is this good enough , customers is a pain to start from cold and smokes ,lovely when warm
hi yes 330-400 psi is pretty good, if you were down to 200 psi you would certainly have a problem, you may well have another problem like glow plugs but would check ecu for codes first
@@alan4x i seen your other video on glow plugs ,very informative ,surprised these engines rely so much on good plugs ,most high pressure diesels work fine without . I noticed yours lit up like a light bulb when you powered it ,mine just glowed ,so may be there lies the fault . One of them jobs where i just changed the fuel leak off pipes ,and ever since you fixed it ,its hard to start and smokes on cold 🤔 😥
@@stogmot1 I would say if your problem is since you replaced the leak off pipes I would think maybe one of the pipes seals is damaged and letting in air which could give you poor starting
@@alan4x i will go through it with a fine toothcomb again next week . originaly fuel was pouring out the leakoffs ,now dry as a chip so unlikely to be leaking in ,but will check . Many thanks ,when i sussed it will let u know wot it was
can you tell me where you can repair cars because I would like to replace the timing belt and water pump.😊
2015 Mondeo 2litre tdci Titanium.. with 83k miles.. what should I be looking out for..? Love yer channel and Banter.! :-)
Will swap mine next week :-) s-max
Hi Alan, when mentioning if there is no power to the glow plugs, it could possibly be the relay or fuse? On the off chance, do you know where the fuse is located for the glow plug relay? I am having difficulty finding it. Thanks
You could make a cup of tea with a glow plug 😂
i have an UFDB motor, 2.0 TDCI, focus, 2012. this is the same ?
Basically the same, there are slight differences probably, but they are both the PSA sourced DW10
Hi Alan,please help me resolve a problem at my Ford s-max 2016, when i start the engine He shivers, especially when it's cold, I've changed glow plugs with reley but nothing, I thought is a flywheel and i changed but Nothing has changed, service man checked engine mount all ok, this vibration They can be felt on the steering wheel and pedals when the engine is working at low revs,Thanks in advance
Who cares about taught settings? I'm here for Monika
Those taught settings are important
Hello If the high-pressure pump emits metal debris. Do you also have to change the fuel tank and the entire pipeline.
How the hell did they all come out so easy!
I dread that job as had too many get stuck in the head or worse
Just use a torque wrench to avoid breaking, and of course soak them in your fluid of choice
I would have thought the anti shudder valve/throttle valve would have closed when he switched ignition off killing the engine?
So much plastic. Do you find these engines depressing to work on? Do you have an old school engine that you just breathe a sigh of relief on when one rolls in for some work?
Hi Alan Love your channel and your knowledge about Fords motors.
May I Ask you can bad Glow plug cause raw run of Engine on idle and between 1800 - 1900, over 2000 is pretty good. 2.0TDCI 2012 DW10C .
Also have can you have do video about vibration on front wheels in fords ? seems be common issue too at S-max and Mondeo
All T7T8 engines will fit in all,you just have to your original wiring loom
Is there a “set interval” on when to change glow plugs or is it just when they start to go bad?
Hi Alan what engine size do you think is the best for the mk5 mondeo?
Good question
Hi Alan, where did you get that metal trim tool from?
that came from laddaw..windscreen company in bedford but you can get similar off ebay
Alan what is the site you went to see the Torque of the glow plugs?
I would like to know could I put a awf21 transmission from a 2008 mk4 in to a 2012 mk4 with 6dct450 transmission
Hmm.. I live in Finland and you can start these engines without any glow plug working fine!
So im not sure, how old is your info. But as you test with battery your glow plug, i say its old.
Look at your glow plug side.... its NOT 12V anymore! ....~4,6v was last one that i member.
Today they are not so much for starting at cold they are more and more for emissions and so they are used even when engine is running...
And so on some of these if you lose all 4 plugs you get Engine system fault message and lose your engine power to force you get and fix it(for emissions).
"...all 4 of your glow plugs are bad."
"But my car starts fine even at cold mornings."
"Yes. Isnt it nice when engines just get better and better so they need Webasto to heat cabin up so you dont get cold?"
These are facing forwards and so i like these more when they are at back of the engine like was it 1,6liter those are my worst nigthmare for breaking as imagening need to drill that out.. MAN..
PS. I Would say that run your engine HOT 2 fan spin ups (with AC OFF) before so you burn most sudd off before you start tu pulling out that bad glowplug as it was bad loong time before you noticed it via fail message ;)
Why did I see citreon and Peugeot badge?
these engines are made by peugeot
@@alan4x is it the engine they in the relay and boxer?
@@chriscollins1704 same-ish, both DW10, the vans have AdBlue so there is some difference
I’ve had more than one car run on it’s own oil. It’s one of the scary sides of diesel tech. It’s 5th gear stall only , stop , and wait for heart rate to start slowing
surely you can just block the air intake to stop the runaway ?
@@TheAdrianNightingale in my experience you have zero time. The car can only be stalled to stop. It’ll Rev redline. Often in gear.
@@TheAdrianNightingale put your hand over it and it'll probably suck your hand in. The advice I got was to stick it in a high gear and dump the clutch to stall it. Watch a few runaway diesel videos and see how they deal with them. The scariest one I seen was a diesel train engine. It literally started eating itself.
Hello sir, I want the address please. I have a Ford Mondeo that has a white smoke problem.
The engine in mine is T7CE 🤔
Have you got a video for the mk4.5 mondeo 2.0tdci. Are they header to get out?
Omg, Have fun! Was the final line, on the mk4 video. They are not broken, but It s good to know what are you looking at. Cheers.
What a nightmare having to strip half the engine just for access 😭typical french nothing ever simple 😂😂😂😂😂
Alan have you ever been called MondyAl by mistake.
There's an awful lot of PSA stamps and labels on that engine, Al. I wonder if the P in the T7CP denotes PSA origins 🤔
you just KNEW i was gonna ask THIS question, didn`t ya...................................................................................................." HEY ALAN, WHY DID THIS ENGINE TAKE A SHIT" 😣😣😣😣😣😣😣😣😣😣
Epilepsy alert @ 11:54 😎
😅😅
Seems to me that Ford are lazy you're not making their own engines like they used to I have beginning to see a pattern that all manufacturers are cutting corners so I can make cars really quickly
Thats cause ford engines are dog shit now..should of updated the zetec engine and scrapped the ecoboost crap
One of their new bosses at least admitted the quality/reliability has to be improved in the following years, but that won’t help the people owning and using the cars from the current era
Wow... Shows how much a PSA engine engineers around a glow plug. Vag engines are a piece of cake, but then again I've replaced these at 70k causing an EML. At 270k, that's damned good going for a plug.
Could NEVER own one of these engines because of the crud they build up in the intake. Took my merc engined 300c inlet manifold to bits to clean after an egr delete. What. A. Pig.
Egr deletes are a must to keep any modern diesel's intake clean. The newer VAG stuff isn't as reliable as the PSA stuff, the older non common rail stuff was very good, but the newer stuff is unreliable. PSA's dpfs are much better also, been around alot longer
@@scottbrooks3402 You know I hate to admit I agree, the PSA engines are much better than VAG. I did have an old school mechanical VAG unit in my volvo. that was 320,000 miles of tired fun. I doubt a PD would reach that now. But with Alan showing how a well maintained fleet of taxi's begin tickling 300-400k's, I must say for bone stock engines, I am impressed.
If he had abilities to kill the EGR when they were first bought them, I'm sure they'll live a lot longer. Not only the intake - But oil life is extended too. I flushed the oil on my volvo d5 (with an egr delete) with wrong grade oil, It was in there for a few days while the oil arrived. The flushings were black, but the new oil stayed clean for well over a month!
