I also would persevere with the 1.6 until you get used to it.

New battery, thanks for the recommend Martin, new brush pack as advised, new glow plugs and we have lift off, thanks for all the advice.

Sod it for 20 quid I thought I just as well replace them anyway, so I will wait and see how it starts in the morning, thanks

The Lidl one won't charge a battery with less than 3.5 volts, so no good if you have left it draining.

Thanks ZsZ, if they are drawing power can I assume they are working?

And I think Merc alloys only have 12mm holes for the studs and you need 14mm.

Just timed it at 3 minuets.

Sorry I can't find the answer anywhere, how long do the glow plugs stay on after the light goes out, mine are still showing on my volt meter for a good minuet after the engine starts, thank you.

In the old days it was classed as a class 4 HGV as it is as you point out articulated.

And me.

If you are experiencing problems starting when hot then I would have thought it very unlikely to be glow plug related?

Not seen them, where did you get them?

I have a new meter so I could check, any idea what they should read?

Mine are working ok but I don't think I have replaced them in over 5 years, is it something that should be done regularly or just wait until they stop working, thanks?
