amazing stuff!.very many thanks for posting the pictures
-that is exactly how my car's engine looks like!
i will try and lever the coil packs as you describe now that i can see how it is done.The engine although it is a golf has many italian parts including a magnetti marelli ecu.I always believed in bosch ones.
i am sure i will manage and once again thanks for your help.
i did once own audi coupe 5 cylinder 2.0 litre 5 speed gti 1986 model-amazing car and getting the spark plugs out on that model was very easy then!
