smc 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Hi allI want to service my Mk4 4motion but can't even find the spark plugs! Does anyone have any servicing literature, please? I have a Peter Rusek but it's too old now. There doesn't appear to be a Haynes for this.Help, PLEASE!!!Thanks Stephen Link to post Share on other sites
richievr 1 Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 i don't think there is a haynes for your car ..hopefully your engine should look like the pic below: - if you remove the top cover it should be kinda like this underneath...the spark plugs are under the connectors on the top - un plug them and you have a combined coil and plug lead in one unit - i think you need a "special tool" to remove them though ???? as for the rest servicing should be the same as any other car, oil filter, air filter, etc... hope this is useful...

dellert 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 sorry to wander off, but I think they are slow. Not in the real sense of slow, but relatively. 24v over 12v, in my opinion it should be 230bhp not a miserable 206bhp, I also think that the 4WD was a mistake, FWD would have sufficed.The VR6 works fine on 2WD so for the extra few grunts 4WD is unecessary. I have been looking at them to replace my aged VR6, but the cost does not match the gains. Gonna keep saving, for the R32 Link to post Share on other sites

guppers 0 Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 it seems to be that the 4 motion has plenty of power up to 3500 revs but then nothing. the vr on the other hand comes alive at this rev. or is it just me? Link to post Share on other sites
