      Flip engine cover, unclip wire loom feed, pull up coil pack, child's play.

        Yes - very easy DIY.

        There's a nice write-up on Golfmk6: DIY Spark Plug Change - VW GTI MKVI Forum / VW Golf R Forum / VW Golf MKVI Forum / VW GTI Forum - Golfmk6.com

          Can I keep the same spark plugs? i.e. just change the coils only?

            Yes stock plugs are fine. If you go BT then you may look at upgrading plugs then.

            I think plugs get changed at 60k service so if you're near that you may look at getting a set of plugs too.

            Most people don't bother.

                i did my 60k service bout a month ago - hence i'd prefer not to change the sparks.
                thanks for clearing that up.
                i'll send some funds ur way shortly.

                    I thought I'd posted in this thread but can't see it.

                    I'll take a set.

                    Happy to bundle postage with somebody if they live Southern Sydney or Outer SW Sydney.

                    thx

                                Order has been placed for all parts.

                                I have managed to squeeze 1 more set R8 coil packs into this shipment so if anyone missed out PM me and first one in will get the last set.
