do i have to take the whole manifold off? does any one have ideas of what to do??How to change spark plugs in a Volkswagen golf 2.0?
You can take the top section of the manifold off fairly easily, and if you're careful you ought to be able to remove it keeping the gasket between the upper and lower manifold intact. It's just as easy as removing the bolts with metric(since it's VW) allen keys and lift it out of the way, disconnecting any tubes that wont allow you to move it far enough, you should even be able to leave the intake attached. Just make sure that if you disconnect any vacuum lines/sensor clips, that you remember where they go, and that you don't damage them when you remove them.
Just try not to over complicate and remove just enough to move it out of the way of the spark plugs.How to change spark plugs in a Volkswagen golf 2.0?

I can't say for sure, but the first thing that crossed my mind here was,'; Isn't that a diesel engine?'; That begs the question, what sort of fuel do you put in it? Gasoline, or Diesel fuel? If you use diesel, you don't have spark plugs. If you use gasoline, then yes you do have spark plugs. If that is the case, I am not sure, but the best way to find out is to reference the owner's manual.
They are easy to change, just follow the plug wires to the plug, grasp the boot, not the wire, and with a twisting motion, pull the sparkplug boot and wire off! unscrew the plug, gap the new Bosches , put them in!
first off u shouldnt need to take the manifold off, use a spark plug socket they make them for a reason. if u hav the plastic engine cover on u can take that off easily, then 1 by 1 change ur plugs. DO NOT PULL ALL THE PLUG WIRES OFF AT THE SAME TIME. that could b one of the biggest mistakes made and is a pain intheass to fix by figuring out where each wire truely goes back to. so please do it 1 by 1. but is pretty easy to do.
