So its just passed it’s mot today so I can give a bigger run on the moto. When I get it home I’ll pull the multi meter out of the shed n see but I may not find anything cos it’s only once the engine is warm, either way I’ve ordered NGK leads and plugs so should solve the problem. If not is guna be a ...

One thing that I've wondered about, on my own 1.2 TSI, is the silicone paste that the factory stuffs up the sparkplug lead, around the point where the lead clips to the sparkplug. Is this meant to act as a moisture-repellant, ie as an insulator, or is the paste electrically conductive? I always ...

Thanks for the replies, so the spark plugs have maybe done 8k, so guna order some, ngk or Bosch?

What a diamond, found bolt from that site :M6X35
can i just buy a decent set of those and it will be fine?

other part is this but i just need the seal :03F121111A
Just asked some on ebay who supplies the part if they sell the seal separate.

So im finally getting my TSI back together after 3 months off the road, feeling positive after getting the head gasket on last night.

So after work today I thought id get in a few hours on the car while theirs light .... Them BAM! tightening up the inlet manifold the torx bolt goes on me manuel ...

Thanks for that. Would you say to follow that as it seems quite loose. And from judging on the carbon built up and residue on the gasket it must have been leaking at them specs. Tempted to go 20 back off, 20and recheck. Would you you advise not to or will I be ok?

Reg is yx60hcp

The sequence I posted is from correct Manuel

Cheers

Can anyone help before I do this incorrectly.
