What's the big difference between revisions?

The one I just picked up from VW was made in 2008 and was revision N

The one I pulled out of the car is 2001 and Rev A

nah, the full metal jacket option wasnt too much more, but the oem plastic sides remain and look like theyll do the job just fine.

There was a recall issued in the US for coilpacks recently, N sounds pretty recent though and is probably what's being used these days - the D and K ones are superceded (I suspect A was superceded by D and then K)...

I started a 180,000km Service.

*New Oil - Castrol Edge Sport 0W-40
*New Plugs - NGK VR6 Platinum (GAP#BKR5EKUP)
*New Oil Filter - Wesfil WC059
*New Cabin Filter (GAP#1J0819644)
*New Air Filter (GAP#1J0129620AAFT)

I'm waiting on some money to get the Haldex Oil as i couldn't get that from GAP as they won't post oils. I have the filter and wrench though.
I also still need to bleed the brakes.

The stuff i've done so far has it running so much smoother.

Drove it hard!

+ booked it in for some minor "sprucing up" at the panel beaters after the high country cruise but before SEDF.

Took one of the wheel arch liners off to fit my indicators and it was like a cartoon when they open a house door and the wall of water sits there for a second before crushing them, the amount of dirt and rubbish in there was crazy!! thinking ill do it all around the car now...
