Joe M 0 Posted August 14, 2003 My cars currently in for a service and the garage just phoned to say that one of my leads is gubbed and the rest are in a poor state. I suspected this due to a slight misfire and roughness at idle. So, what leads to go for, VW for probably £100+, ECP for £50+vat or another aftermarket make. :?

Rams 0 Posted August 14, 2003 Joe M, Mate I was in the same situation as you. I went for Quantim leeds from VW, they are the recommended leeds along side the O/E which are something silly like 20 and 25 for each leed. I would get the magnicor leeds, problem is they take 5 days to make so you need something now hence why I went with the quantium leeds from VW. They are a resonable price and if vw sell them over the counter they cant be to bad. I had a problem with them as they have a small amount of lubricant in the caps, mine kept poping off the the plugs and dizzy cap untill some of the head dried the oil up and I had to keep clicking them back on for an afternoon then they are fine.

macca 0 Posted August 14, 2003 On e-bay, there is a set of performance leads for a 6. Cheers guy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted August 14, 2003 I have the set from Eurocarparts. £55 and are holding up well. I was impressed by the quality - good chunky leads and well made. A lot better than the poor mis-match of leads in there when I bought the car! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe M 0 Posted August 14, 2003 I was more or less decided on the ecp ones before I posted due to the price mainly. Will try and get a set tommorow. Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted August 14, 2003 Yeah, they're definately value for money. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
