mk3 gti

I have just brought a 98 MK3 gti and would like to know what the Manufactures spec oils for the engine and gearbox are
Also if you can get a K&N panel Air filter to replace the VW one
and what sort of Spark plugs you have found best to run in these cars

Sorry for putting it here but there is no tech forum

Thanx

You should just use the Mk3 forum.
Ask Bsting what kind of oil he uses in his car?

What does the service stick say was put in it last time?

And how many Kms has your car done?

As for the K&N, yes they make them for the Mk3 GTI. Are you after a replacement filter or a pod filter?
