Injectors and glow plugs are best removed on a warm engine - never stone cold.
Glow plugs are used for more than just starting - they are turned on at other times too (as part of the emissions system). On a car with 100,000miles or more, I'd replace them all and the glow plug controller if the engine is the M57TU.
