    Spare parts are piezas de repuesto

    Windscreen wiper motor is motor limpiaparabrisas

    No idea about glow plug? Literal translation would be enchuffe brillo......

    Hi There,
    I think the glow plug is " Enchufe Nocturno"
    and the motor for the windscreen wipers would be:
    "Motor de limpiaparabrisas!
    Hope that helps:o

    I think what you have there may be a night-light !

    Try: enchufe de resplandor OR resplandezca tapon

    Hi Mooraker,
    In actual fact literally enchufe means PLUG and nocturno night.
    There is no exact translation for glow plug, but enchufe nocturno would the way to ask for a glow plug in Spain. I have a Spanish person sitting here and they have assured me that is correct.

    Do what most Brits do in Spain, take your car to the garage and point, it usually works.

    Saves all of the hassle of learning Spanish..;)
