Does the code need to be reset before I would really know if the plugs helped?

What did the old plugs look like? Were they bent, melted, black or white? Or brownish or grey (normal).

Three of the coils appear to be original(vw/audi)on them.One looks to have been replaced(looks new/vwak).

Change coils next I guess.
