which cylinder is which
My car was idling really rough and shaking while stopped at a traffic light today. The CEL flashed a few times and then stayed lit permanently. So I searched this forum and scanned the code. The codes are p0300, p0301 and p0302 among others.
So I am planning to replace all the four spark plus and two coil packs. My dilemma is, which one is the cylinder 1? is it the left most or the right most? I never done this before so apologize, if this is something really really obvious.

if he said left to right dosent that mean its FWD?
now that i think about it ive never seen a 1.8T FWD enigine b4 so im not sure how its set up.
and coil packs go randomly, so if you dont have the extra $160 to replace the other two dont worry about it.

$160? their $30 each, about $120 for 4. fwd engine is the exactly the same in that aspect.
if who said left to right? i dont even know what your talking about, we dont have a transverse setup like tt's and vw's.

Oops. sorry, when I said left to right, I was not looking at them from the front.
I do not have a FWD.
Coill packs are $30 each at ecs tuning and german auto parts. They are $72 at my closest $tealership.
