Hi Guys,

I am new to the forum and need some help please....


I have a 2007 fiat multijet active 120, it has done 70 thousand miles. It has been poorly recently, requiring a new clutch and DMF (Cheap at 700 quid i think).


So trying to save pennies after xmas.


As The Cold snap has set in, I have noticed that my car takes longer to start. I have allowed plenty of time for the plugs to warm and pump priming to complete and still on occasion it doesnt start. The glow plug warning light is not on. But given the symptoms I have decided to replace the glow plugs (bargain off ebay set of 4 for 20 quid), Anyways I digress.


Of course the first point of call was to read the guide on the bravo guides section which was helpful, however I cannot find a reasonable way to get to the plugs easily.


I was wondering if people could share with me (a very much lay-man) the best way to access these plugs??


Any help would be greatly appreciated
 
If it's the 2007 model, is it the 8v version you have?
I have the same problem - I can't even see the plugs let alone get to them!

It's all much simpler on the 16v... :-(

Saying that, my glow plug warning light has been coming on every morning for about a year and a half now - only just started getting really bad.
 
It is indeed the 8v Version, Still no clear easy way found though apart from taking EGR off?
