The glow plugs are there for those rare occasions when its very , very cold - much colder than UK . My 2007 car glow plugs take at least 5 sec to turn red. Tested on a table. Nobody is waiting that long. My point is that yes glow plugs may help but if everything else is working fine (at least on 1.9jtd) they are unnecessary. Lets face it - most people rush all the time and nobody is waiting for their glow plugs to heat up and cars start srtraight away. I used to work as a mechanic and we would reccomend glow plugs for starting problem and it never helped.
