Spark plugs and fuel filter

[swedishfireball]

Just thinking about changing mine over and seem to recall there was a set of spark plugs everyone posted about while back that were cheap and good quality? Cannot for the life of me find the thread though. I know this is vague so apologies but hope someone can help!

Also, as a side note.. I'm going to swap the fuel filter but would I be best off buying it directly from VW or could I use someone like GSF for a copy part?

This was the one, Thanks And thanks to everyone else for the quick replies, jeez you lot are fast

The only reason I'd get the filter from GSF is because I can get trade price. Not a massive saving but a saving. Just wondered if anyone knew about any quality issues?

Ooh, if you need it, part number for fuel filter is:-

1K0201051K.

part number for fuel filter is:-
1K0201051C

Latest one from VAG is 1K0201051K
I think this is fairly 'hot off the presses'. Has a 6.6 bar pressure regulator, the older has 6.4 bar.

^^^^ oh, your having a laugh, have only just had mine changed recentley with the 6.4 bar C revision, back to VW then for the K one.

Thanks for correcting me though, will change my previous post, as not to confuse anyone!

back to VW then for the K one.

I don't think you should waste your time! 0.2 bar isn't much - the C has worked fine - never heard of any failures/recalls.

^^^^ cheers bud, your right, not much point when you think about it.
