Glow plug & EGR blanking plate

[MGaz]

Discovered yesterday that my AEL needs a new Glow plug on the last cylinder at the back of the engine, A quick look on ebay and I see a couple of different part numbers have come up for the same engine. Can anyone tell me what the right one is?

is it :

GLP003 or GLP073 ? Or should I buy from somewhere else?

Also, i'm after an EGR blanking plate/kit for the AEL. Can someone tell me witch one is the right one for my AEL engine?

thanks in advance

any idea on the correct EGR blanking plate?

are you going to remove the whole system? Or if you leave the system in place you will only need one plate. Just pull it back from inlet manifold and slide it in and bolt back up in stock position. There is t4, t5 ones there on ebay ask seller if.it fits.

thanks once again....

finally contacted him.. gave him the details of the car, he said:

Hi, it will fit the exhaust manifold. Best to check that the inlet is the same size, as the 1996 1.9 TDi has a smaller gasket ( 54mm hole centre)

[K7ERG]

I will measure the inlet manifold blank plate on mine. And let you know

[K7ERG]

Overall length is 80mm and across is 50mm usual diamond shape. Can't get hole centres as I would have to start taking things off. Hope this helps

Did you buy the blanking plates and did they fit?

[GT500]

Made one for mine. Must have taken all of 10 minutes...

Yep! fitted perfectly...

sorry for the late reply, but i've only just got round to taking the EGR off the car .
