Right, recently i had the ignition coil in cylinder 2 fail. As this failed i replaced all the plugs as the one in cylinder 2 was fouled and i thought i may as well replace them all.

Fast forward a couple of months, car starts misfiring again.
Turns out it was the plug in cylinder 2.

What i want to ask is, does anyone else have problems with cylinder 2, or should i be worried?
Im hoping that maybe just the heat from the turbo makes them fail quicker (as its directly in line with cylinder 2).
Or should i be worried about something more sinister?

I replaced the plug for a old good one and its running fine again now but for how long i dont know.

HELP :(
 
Never had any trouble with mine, have you got plugs of the correct temperature rating?
 
They should be, they are the correct ngk number plugs and all the others are the right colour, im going to check it tomorrow morning to see the colour and report back as it hasnt been misfiring and getting fouled.
 
Just checked all of my plugs.

1 and 3 are healthy and look normal but 2 and 4 are running hot.
Any ideas?
