Just ring VW and get a price. I had a pattern part in mine for 2 days and that was a pile of poo. Had to put one from VW in, in the end.

my mate fitted 4 non genuine coil packs to his A4, within a month he was back to me asking if I would scan it for probs as it was down on power. Lo and behold 3 of the coil packs were faulty...

can a coil pack not just go!!

If you understand me, my car seems to be misfiring occasionally but not all the time, could this be a pack, because the last time a pack went on mine, it misfired constantly! :huh: :huh:
