    AliExpress Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel

    Trim piece came in today. The carbon laid over the plastic trim looks good. The plastic trim piece itself looks like a cheap aftermarket part. I put it on the steering wheel but didn't pop it all the way on, it looks like it will fit nicely. I am happy with the look of the carbon overlay but...

    AliExpress Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel

    Came in today 24 days after placing the order. First impressions - looks exactly like the pictures online. Stitching looks good, overall quality feels nice, feels solid. The "perforated leather" is actually dimpled and not perforated. Not that this is good or bad, just an observation. Not...

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    Not bad at all. Pretty easy to do in the garage with jack stands. Dropping the exhaust down a little bit helps a lot. I reused all of the one time use hardware with no issues.

    AliExpress Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel

    Cracked Spark plug - booooo

    When I worked for a Toyota dealership in the early 2000s I saw a lot of coil on plug misfires due to the insulators aging and cracking and then the plugs would carbon track. It looks very similar to you have there. And yes sometimes you could feel the track with your fingernail. As soon as you...

    Cracked Spark plug - booooo

    That looks like it could be carbon tracking not the porcelain cracking. I would look very closely at the insulator on the coil. If it has done it several times I'm leaning towards to insulator boot is bad and the spark is tracking down the side of the plug.
