Glow plug warning

[ronecc]

I have a 2024 Ducato camper. It only has 4.500 miles on the clock. The last couple of times I have started the engine, the glow plug warning has come on, 'Check Glow plugs'. The weather has been roasting hot, so I have had no trouble starting the van. It flashes for around 30 seconds or so, then goes off. I cannot get a fault code on my OBD2 meter, so cannot pinpoint the problem. Looking under the bonnet does not help as There are so many wires and boxes, I cannot even work out where the injectors or glow plugs are situated.
Second question, has anybody heard of a dipstick conversion for these vans? Fiat in their wisdom decided to do away with the dipstick, which is a stupid idea.

I am told that when it tells you about a problem with the glow or heater plugs, this effects the proper running of the dpf.
My advice, check or replace the glow plugs before you have a problem with a blocked dpf....

Thanks. I will be looking at booking it in as it is still under warranty.
