(T) Stilo JTD glowplugs

Has anyone replaced the glowplugs in their JTD yet? I've just had a quote from the dealers for £206 for this job . I knew it was going to be expensive when the phone call began with those immortal words "Are you sitting down?...". So I've decided to do fit them myself but was wondering if anyone has come up against any problems?

Not sure about this place...not been here before.

But Fiat quoted me 340 for a 4th service and this place quoted me £140!!

Got it from Yell

That IS a good price. I've been ringing around for quotes near where I work in Leeds and have been quoted 80 + vat for glowplug change - hardly worth doing it yourself for that price . This was at Turin Motors on Meanwood Road, Sheepscar. Their phone number is 0113 237 4949.

But I'd still be interested to hear about possible pitfalls and problems I might come up against if I did the job myself.
