Replacing glow plugs om 2006 TDV6 HSE?
My LR3 is taking long to start first time in the morning. Have to turn over up to 5 times before she starts. I am trying to understand what causes this; faulty glow plugs or loss of fuel pressure when she is stationary.
Any advise please.
Paul.

To check individual glow plugs first go to the 3 pin multiplug on each bank under the engine cover. One bank has a black plug and the other bank has a brown plug. If you disconnect these multiplugs and supply a fused feed to each pin going down to the plugs whilst using an amp clamp , you will see how much each plug is working at , I think it's around 15amps.
