Product Details

This Bosch diesel glow plug is engineered for 2003-2006 Dodge Sprinter 2500 and 2003-2006 Dodge Sprinter 3500 diesel applications. The dual heating and control coil system manages current flow efficiently so the glow plug reaches operating temperature quickly, supporting faster engine starts and smoother cold-start performance. Bosch 0250202142 is also cataloged under previous number 80036.

The Bosch Diesel Glow Plug line focuses on precise diesel pre-heating performance for engines that rely on controlled combustion chamber temperature during startup. In vehicles with post-glow control, this design supports a more efficient warm-up phase after the engine fires.

This part cross-references 5080047AB for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Hard starting in cold weather
  • Extended crank time on diesel startup
  • Rough initial idle after ignition
  • Slow combustion chamber warm-up
  • Glow plug replacement for Sprinter diesel service
