Thanks!
First of all - great post. Its awesome that someone takes the time to do this and your post was a huge help to me. I have a couple of things that I learned that would make it perfect.
First of all - the wrench. I dont know about others, but my filter was on good - as in no way of getting it off w/o a wrench. Well I just happened to get my hands on the perfect wrench for this job..there are several different kinds, but here are a couple designs - called a 'claw' wrench I think:
One other thing - a 19mm socket might work, but its not the right size and you might damage your plug head. On a MkVI you need an 18mm socket - I picked one up at the local auto parts store. I have three socket sets that all skip a 16 and 18mm size. I even tried to get closer than a 19 trying standard sockets but alas it is 18mm and nothing but
Thanks again for a great DIY!
