Why I hear you cry, I'll tell ya why, cos I was stuck on the back of an A.A. tow truck thats why !! after having been told it was only a spark plug problem, then a coil pack problem, then the inlet valve not sealing problem, it has now turned into a cylinder head rebuild with a cambelt pack and new water pump thrown in for good measure total cost about £700 which is a bit of a blow but should be ready on saturday wouldnt mind but i just replaced the front pads and discs last month but hopefully nothing more will need doing for some time now, fingers crossed. Anyway enough of my problems, I wanted top ask anyone what their experience was regarding oil usage, as ive been told the mk4 2.0cc gti (2001 model) does use quite a bit is that the case ??
