I broke down on the motorway yesterday because of another failed coil pack. This is the third time it's happened to me in 7 years of driving my GTI mk6. The AA fitted a new one for me by the roadside.In light of this incident I'm going to have a look at getting the "uprated" red top ones fitted if they still sell them. Are the ECS tuning ones good? I'd appreciate any recommendations.
It is advisable to replace all 4 coilpacks when one fails. Did you replace a single coil at a time when they failed?
