        just as a test i put some chem-i-weld in my car and gave it a half hour run.. after the run i wanted to see how it went.. its still the same but the idle is less rough, no water from the exhaust, but my thermo fans aren't on... pretty sure my thermostat is fubar, I'm guessing that's whats caused it.

          Not necessarily, could have stopped a leak near the head, still worth getting it checked

            so after a day at vw they had this to say: the coil pack, spark plugs and spark leads are bad and i need new ones.. so on to my next question, where can i get good replacement coils and leads? also what type of spark plugs are good and suit a stock 1.6L?
