Hello everyone, I am still new to the VW world and am currently doing all the maintenance on a 08 Rabbit I purchased with a rebuilt title from some front end damage, mainly broken plastics in front end area and a slightly bent hood and side panel but nothing to bad...
I just swapped out the spark plugs and 4 of them looked like normal used plugs, and the last one (the one on the right closest to the battery) was soaked in a clear liquid... I smelt it and it had no smell, I took a lighter to it to see if it was gas and it didn't light at all... I feel it has to be water or maybe coolant, but it was only that cylinder... The engine has no engine light and it runs great and pulls like a champ.
notice in the included photo the 4 plugs look normal but the 5th one has noticble rust on the plug?
I replaced the spark plug and it fired right up and the car runs like new, but liquid on the plug does concern me... Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!!
