Thats as far as my knowledge goes! RE: dead battery - Willo - 22-02-2013 Lol thanks mate RE: dead battery - bigcheez2k3 - 22-02-2013 Don't hold me to this but surely the glowies would be the same as the ones in a DT? All they do is heat up and it's the same block (I think) as in a DT. Although glowies go in the head. Now I'm rambling RE: dead battery - Willo - 22-02-2013 I'm being asked if it an XUD engine or if its a DW8 engine phoned 3 places and they have all asked the same because the XUD is 12mm and the DW8 is 10mm or something along those lines RE: dead battery - Willo - 22-02-2013 Can anyone tell me if I have a DW8 or an XUD please I'm desperate to get these glowies ordered RE: dead battery - declantg - 22-02-2013 Looks XUD to me RE: dead battery - Face. - 22-02-2013 According to your reg and car parts for less: http://www.carparts4less.co.uk/cp4l/c/Peugeot_306_1.9_1998/p/car-parts/car-service-parts/regular-service/glow-plugs/?438110132&1&70dfea50c9c074497211724a91875ecc243b168f&000164 Think it's an xud DW8: According to:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PEUGEOT-CITROEN-1999-2007-1-9-D-1868CC-DW8-WJY-BARE-ENGINE-206-PARTNER-BERLINGO-/150926791379 RE: dead battery - Willo - 23-02-2013 Thanks for all the help guys much appreciated RE: dead battery - londondan86 - 23-02-2013 Yep that's an XUD9 and it will take the same plugs as the dt RE: dead battery - Willo - 23-02-2013 cheers mate imjust trying to order all my service parts that i need now
