Just received a photo of the plugs from the dealer. They look to me like something that has been subjected to the wet weather. How does a plug get into this state when it's in a cylinder head?
Thanks

Re: GTI+ misfire
Thanks for the link to the T&C'S. I suspected a get out clause like that. The car has covered 38,000 miles, I’m not aware of plugs having been changed. I would have thought the bead of silicone grease applied to the inside circumference of the sealing hose of the coil pack would prevent any moisture ...

GTI+ misfire
Had my 2020 GTI recovered to the dealer last week for a bad misfire. I have an all in service plan so wasn't expecting a call to say fault diagnosed as cylinder 2 and 3 coil packs and plugs but not covered by warranty as they are corroded and would be £435 to sort out. Anyone heard of a claim being ...

Re: The mysteries of part numbers? CBZB Timing chains??
Just changed the timing chain on CBZB using the kit, also oil pump sprocket and chain.
Anyone know the procedure using VCDS for timing chain adaption?
Thanks

Re: DSG servicing
My GTi+ is going in for a service mid November on 20,400 miles, the car will be 4 years old in January I asked for a DSG oil and filter change, they came back with a cost of £441.99 just for the DSG oil and filter change.
Price seems a bit high just for that.
Thanks

Re: Blower Resistor Location / Replacement
Had this happen yesterday, GTI+. Car is 2 years old first week January, not good enough really as this has been happening for years. Should have a heatsink on it or increase in wattage.
