Look out for tensioner. Somewhat large maintenance at 40k intervals. (DSG fluid and filter, haldex fluid). Oil changes every 5-10k. Spark plugs every 40k a good ideal imo as well.
Owner reviews for spark plug
I just switched out a set of Bosch's for the NGK PFR7S8EG's...and to me it's night and day.
use oem plugs for the next 40k, its worth it, part number is 06H-905-601-A
I ran those plugs with zero issues for many years on my stage 2+ car gapped at .028.
PFR6Q was equivalent to the stock Bosch plugs. They work fine.
Ik22 is one heat range colder than stock,and I have installed these in many 1.8T & FSI cars from stock/mild tune/heavy modded and worked great.
I used NGK BKR5E-7938 they are awesome plugs, i only paid $14 for mine but i have a friend who pays cost. they are around $80.
autolites 3923 platinumsgave me the same mpg as the expensive NGK platinum.....
I used the NGK plugs once and kept getting a pretty bad hiccup under hard acceleration.
My car started experiencing misfires after changing the sparkplugs. Never happened before. Now it gives me a code for random misfires and #4 in particular. Today is the second tome it happened after starting the car on a cold morning. Second time 2 weeks after changing spark plugs. Just after I start, when its still cold, and never during driving or idling when warmed up. Strange. Could it be the plugs. I am using the new NGK ones. NGK Part # 1675 Laser Platinum pre gapped. Didnt have a problem with this before. I think these a are one range colder than the previous ones I had in the car. Could that be the problem?
