Thank you for your response. The cold start is, as you would expect, problematic. Can you perhaps elaborate more on your experience? Was the error message the same? Did you also have starting problems?

Yes, the error message was identical, and cold starts became progressively worse. Given that and the symptoms you have described, I would suggest taking it to a workshop to confirm glow plug failure. Unfortunately, the repair cost me around 440€.

Thank you for the information. I appreciate you detailing your experience. I have arranged an appointment with a local workshop and they have confirmed the defective glow plug. I will proceed with the replacement.

I had something similar happen to my Berlingo. If the preheating lamp stays on and there's an error code, it is very likely to be a glow plug issue. How does it start when cold?
