    Slap this on your 1.8t. It'll give the engine bay a nice touch.

    I'm not going to drive 3 hours+ to sell this. That's just crazy. You don't need a credit card to use paypal either. It works with bank accounts and debit cards as well. Trust me, it'd be way cheaper to ship it. Even if the buyer was only a hour away, I'd still ship it.

    Takes literally 15 minutes to swap a valve cover. Might as well do it, you know your valve cover gasket is leaking and needs to be changed!

    I have one almost identical installed on my car. The only difference is the coil packs.
    I can send you a picture if you want to pm me an email address.

    This may be a stupid question, but what's the difference in valve covers per different engine codes? Mine is an AUG ....
    Would I be able to run this? Honestly, I see no real differences in the valve covers themselves.

    This one is from my AEB engine code passat. They came with bolt down coils instead of the more common push downs.

    I upgraded my ignition system and ended up getting a new valve cover while I was at it.

    So would this work on my car, being a different engine code?

    Well it'll bolt up, since all 1.8t vc's can be swapped around. What cook packs are you running?

    That's what I figured. My coilpacks look like the press in kind. They don't screw down.

    There is also another option. You could use the coil packs that bolt down and have the same connector as the standard push downs.

    Some people switch out the push downs for these because they are tired of the push down coils popping up.

    So the push down coilpacks will work?
    I never had an issue with the push down style on my mk4 before.

    I'm talking about these coils: Ecs tuning - Hitachi E coils

    They use the same harness connectors as your push downs and have the same shape as the older style bolt down coils. This way, they are compatible with newer engines and are bolted down so they won't ever pop up. They will work with my valve cover.

    The standard push downs wouldn't cover the holes on the valve cover completely.

    Yes, still have it.

    Yes, it is definitely "straight."

    Came off my engine and has zero issues. I can assure that.
