Changing spark plugs - silicone paste

Featured Replies

I've earmarked all I need to change the plugs on my iV's 1.4 engine. The only thing I'm unsure of is that in the workshop manual it states I should coat the base of the ignition coils with silicone paste. Apart from the price, is there anything exceptional about VW OEM silicone grease? If I want to buy non-OEM, is there anything I should be looking out for?

Extremely unlikely that the VAG product has any 'magic ingredient' in it, just buy a reputable silicone grease.
