[Vwdiesel] Interesting GP Note

An interesting note on the Beru glowplug diagnostic page (Thanks, SW)
is that the glow plugs have nickel plating on the threads, and no
oil or grease should be used.  

I would assume that Beru would then also recommend against Never-Sneeze
type products.

Does anyone understand the mechanics and chemistry of nickel plating in
an Al cylinder head?
