Title: how to change spark plugs 1.8n/a
Post by: mcgee9t2 on 25 February 2012, 11:58

should this be the same as on the 1.8t?

cause then i take the engine cover off im presented with something that looks nothing like the 1.8t, cant even see the coil packs :s

am i missing something, should just be engine cover off, then the coilpacks are under, take them off then change the plugs right ?

cheers wazzer.

been looking on the internet and it kept coming up with threads saying this is were the spark plugs are pointing to the injectors :S

what size are the plugs on a mk4 you know? just tried to do mine, 14 mill is too small 15 is too big? can you get a 14.5 plug socket? :S
cheers
