How often should I change my ignition leads?
« on: 25 April 2010, 18:12 »
Hello,

I have a Golf GTI 8V, engine code AGG.

1.  How often should I change my ignition leads?

2.  Any suggestions on what make, and where to buy them?


Many thanks.

50k miles or 5 years, or if any fail before that point.
Inspect throughly every 2 years.
