You won't see the glowplug light above 5 degrees, but yesterday at -5 it was on for about 4 seconds.

Mine is the latest 2.2 HDI.
Currently driving a 2004 C5 VTR (old shape) and an Electric Kia Soul. Sorry but the electric one is my favourite!

My 55 hdi c5 has no glow plug light but it starts instantly even when its -9 and the car has not been used for days, my dealer told me there is no light and no need to wait before starting.
