    i have a 1999 vw sharan 1.9 tdi 110 bhp, it seems down on power like the turbo is not doing its job? if you try and boot it to overtake etc it smokes! dont seem like the accelerator pedal has much travel its hard to describe it?? also when the engine is running the glow plug light flashes on and off constently? and if you put interior lights on for door opening they stay on permently?? love this car fuel consumption is excellent, any help will be appreciated!!

    yes have ordered one form ebay, turns out i have no brake lights again, so must be the switch at fault, this indicates why the glow plug light is flashing, can the switch be repaired?

    Why would you repair a switch that costs a few pounds?
