Post by: killakam78 on 19 December 2010, 13:48
Is it common that when the car is left ticking over the snow turns black where the exhaust is blowing fumes out? Or have i discovered a fault with my MK4?

Its just the normal crap that cars throw out but as there's something for it to collect on you can see it in stead of it going in to the air.

Could it be aswell the fact that I can't get to change the two middle spark plugs? On the 2.0 gti how the hell are you meant to get to the two nuts at the back of the inlet manifold?
