Twingo Diesel Preheating Lamp Issue
Summary of the thread
A 2012 Renault Twingo diesel is experiencing issues with the preheating lamp staying on, the check engine light being illuminated, and excessive smoke during acceleration. The suspected cause is a defective glow control unit, possibly due to a bad connection. A diagnostic test and workshop visit confirmed the issue, leading to the replacement of a faulty cable, resolving the problem.

Good question, yes, sometimes it stalls, especially when it is cold. What did you do?

Yep, mine too. Turned out to be what I suspected - glow control unit. Get a diagnostic test to confirm, but likely you'll need to visit a workshop.

Thanks! You nailed it. You were totally right. Workshop confirmed it and replaced the faulty cable. Cost me 95€. Runs like a dream now!

Sounds familiar. I had something similar with my Twingo. Was the vehicle stalling sometimes?
