Sunday I got the replacement head cleaned right up, covered it in oil and wrapped it up to protect it whilst in storage, I just need the sundries like head gasket bolts and such like, also trying to figure out whether I risk removing the glow plugs on the right bank and have a software flash for metal plugs or find some ceramic replacements, I want to fit metal plugs for piece of mind but do I risk the chance of having to take the right back off too if one snaps? Only plus side is the plug voltage can be changed with a remap I never need an excuse

Looking forward to getting the A8 running again as it's solely missed, even the torque of the 3.0tdi is being pined after, but I'm going to do a bit a preventative maintenance on it whilst its laid up, get things ship shape for when I do start using it more frequently

Hopefully things start to happen much quicker now iv got the cupra to a standard I'm happy to use it as a daily at, bit of cosmetic work to be done and it'll be good to go.
