FAQs

How many glow plugs come in a set?

This product is supplied as a set of 4 glow plugs, sufficient for a full replacement in a 4-cylinder Subaru diesel engine.

Can I install these myself?

If you have experience with automotive mechanics and possess a calibrated torque wrench, installation is straightforward. If you are inexperienced, professional installation is recommended due to the risk of damaging cylinder head threads.

What is the cross-reference for this part?

It is compatible with BLUE PRINT ADS71801 and BorgWarner (BERU) GN 116.

Why is the torque range (10-12 Nm) so important?

The cylinder head is often made of aluminum; precise torque prevents the plug from loosening due to vibration while ensuring the thread remains intact during future removals.

Are these plugs compatible with petrol engines?

No, these are designed exclusively for diesel engines and will not function in a petrol/gasoline ignition system.

Troubleshooting

Engine is hard to start in cold weather

Test the resistance of each glow plug using a multimeter; if the resistance is out of spec, replace the faulty plug.

Glow plug light remains illuminated on dash

Check the glow plug control module or relay, as this often indicates an electrical fault rather than just a bad plug.

Difficulty threading new plug into the cylinder head

Stop immediately, clean the threads in the cylinder head using a thread chaser, and ensure no debris is blocking the hole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reliable cold-start performance for diesel engines
  • High-quality construction from a reputable OEM supplier
  • Precise fitment based on original equipment specifications
  • Improved ignition efficiency compared to aging or worn plugs

Cons

  • Requires specific torque wrench settings for installation
  • Limited to specific Subaru diesel models
  • Professional installation recommended to avoid engine head damage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation must be performed on a cool engine to ensure accurate threading. Always clean the glow plug port thoroughly before insertion.

  • Compatibility: Compatible with various Subaru models including Forester, Impreza, Legacy, Outback, and XV. Always cross-reference with OE Part #22439AA000.
  • Torque Specs: Use a calibrated torque wrench. The recommended tightening torque is 10-12 Nm. Over-tightening can strip threads in the cylinder head, while under-tightening may lead to compression leaks.
  • Care: Avoid using excessive force when removing old plugs, as carbon buildup can cause them to seize. Apply anti-seize lubricant sparingly if recommended by your service manual.
