Cylinder 1 : oil on spark plug.. too much? pics..
as i was trying to trouble shoot the problems i have been having with my car stuttering under high boost i came across this.. now i know in that in some cases its not a big deal to have a little oil on the spark plugs.. but Audi's are new to me.. so i wanna see what you guys have to say..
plugs 2- 4 were perfect..no signs of oil at all..
bad plug gasket?

yeah, im interested too. Mine has the same thing. I just did the valve cover gasket and the gasket around the coilpack holes, should this make a difference? do i need to change my plugs again?
PS. mine has a little shutter as well at high boost, funny thing is when i changed my plugs a while back, it went away. Opinions??

Valve cover gasket. The Gasket at the top of the valve cover can leak and leak down the sides and run onto the spark plug over a period of time. Normally its at the top of the plug but it can also get down there.
