Hi all
I changed my glow plugs as it came up with P0380 code.
Then wouldn't start so changed the relay. Started great. Drove round to try it found it had a leak. Leak was in the return fuel connection. So replaced the hose to all jets. Now car won't start. Comes up with P0381 code.
Any ideas folks.

Dave

quick search online comes back with this..
P0381 is the OBD-II generic code for a glow plug/heater indicator circuit malfunction. ... The ECM (Engine Control Module) monitors coolant temperature and glow plug voltage, facilitating the plugs heating before and while cranking the engine.
