This is a Genuine Nissan glow plug for the YD25DDTi diesel engine. Located in the cylinder head, the glow plug heats the combustion chamber to ensure reliable starting, particularly in cold conditions. This specific glow plug is designed for the Nissan Navara D40 and Pathfinder R51 models built in Spain (VIN starting with VSK) manufactured after January 2010. Please note, these are sold individually.
Glow plugs are a consumable component that will wear out and require replacement. Common signs of a faulty glow plug include difficulty starting the engine, excessive white smoke on startup, rough idling when cold, and a noticeable decrease in fuel economy. Replacing worn glow plugs restores proper starting performance and engine efficiency.
Installation is a straightforward task for an experienced home mechanic. However, extreme care must be taken, as old glow plugs can seize in the cylinder head and snap during removal, which may require specialist tools to extract. It is highly recommended to replace all glow plugs as a set to ensure even heating across all cylinders for smooth, reliable starts. You will typically require a deep socket or a dedicated glow plug socket and a torque wrench for correct installation.
