    Just to let you know, on tuned EA888 engines which yours is its advised to run 5W-40 rather than 30 as it deals with the higher oil temps better and protects the engine from wear when the temps get a tad high

    By the way when your doing wipers on a VW. If you turn the ignition on then off then press the wiper stalk down it puts the wipers into service mode makes them easier to change. Coil packs are not a service item on these, only the plugs at 40K or 4 years

    I'm not sure if you did it or not becuase I didn't see in the video but make sure the spark plugs are torqued to the correct spec. Reason being I had a mini cooper s that was running similar power to your car and it actually blew out a spark plug from the cylinder head taking the threads with it. All becuase the previous owner did not tighten them to specific torque. I guess it came loose the. Rattled its way out completely wrecking the thread. Had to change the cylinder head completely so yeah just a heads up.

    If there is oil on your spark plugs somebody has either split oil on top of the engine or the cam cover gasket is leaking.
    The cams are held down by the cam over on this engine - so it is not a small job to replace the gasket.
