I'm going to be changing the glow plugs on both my DTi's before the weather gets too cold and I have a choice of plugs. The last lot I bought were NGK but I only had them in a year so was wondering if anyone has any suggestions.

The one's i've looked at are

NGK at £30.91 a set
Denso at £32.96 a set
Bosch at £39.00 a set or
Bosch Duraterm at £47.25 a set

I've just started with the plusgas so hopefully in a couple of weeks time the plugs should come out ok, fingers crossed

Beru are meant to be the best from memory?

Last set I bought were about £36 for the set from VX. Not sure who makes them for VX though.

That sounds good to me

I fitted a set of Bosch Duraterm plugs to my Mk2 Golf last year, and I have been very impressed with them.  Have only ever needed to cycle them once, even on very cold mornings, and she always fires on the button. 

They are expensive though...

used both beru and ngk as replacements, never had a problem with either!!
got a new spare set of six for the td, shame they dont fit the pajero!!

Pete. Thoroughly warm the engine with a run or tick over. They come out a treat

I will, just hoping the law of sod is off on holiday when i'm doing them

I've always used NGK Pete, with no problems thus far.
Around 28-30 quid per set - and that's 6 on a TD!
