    I suppose putting one would be better. and your first problem is how to attach it. I suggest suction fan and located below intercooler. good luck!

    DieselDude,

    Since my car still fairly new with me, I had another observation...If I PREHEAT(it seems set at a certain time) the car 3 times then it starts right away...if preheated once it takes a few revolutions of the starter to get the engine going...it scares me I might burn the starter, so now I just pre heat it 3x all the time. Its the same even if the engine is already warmed up. Would you think changing glowplugs would help improve the starting up?

    Check the glowplugs and its control system before replacing any part. Glowplugs are expensive. Baka naman weak ang battery mo, or faulty ang battery cables, terminals, and/or loose and connections nito.
