ix20 Glow Plug Issue
Summary of the thread
A 2017 Hyundai ix20 with a diesel engine is experiencing issues with the preheating lamp staying on, accompanied by a rough idle and an illuminated engine light. These symptoms, along with an error code, suggest a problem with the glow plugs. The recommended solution is to have the glow plugs checked and potentially replaced at a workshop to resolve the issue.

Rough idle? Now that you mention it, yeah, it's been a little shaky on startup. And the engine light IS on. What was the verdict with yours?

Yep, same symptoms here. Ended up being a dodgy glow plug. Honestly, given the symptoms and error code, I'd say get it checked at a workshop. Saved me a headache.

Appreciate the confirmation. Glow plugs it is, then. Just got the bill – 440€! Ouch!

Sounds familiar! I had a similar problem with my ix20. Was your engine idling rough too? Did the engine light come on?
