I got a set of glow plugs for a td42 for under $100 from super cheap auto (bosch). can you put up a photo of your motor it'd help to I.D it. There were 2/3 of stuff all factory turbo td42 GQ's could well be aftermarket turbo tho

cheers growler in my manual it says there are two disels one is the td42 and the other a rd28t does this make sense or do you think i could call the nissan dealer and give the vin and they may be able to help
