Some info for non-turbo 1.8 owners, the coil pack is not the same as the turbo 1.8. In the turbo there is a separate one that fits over each spark plug, but in the non-turbo the coilpack is at the front of the engine like the 1.6 and 1.4 and maybe the 2.0 as well.

Coil pack No3 went, replaced and remapped at the same time. Two weeks later, No1 goes, one week later No2 goes so also got No4 replaced at the same time. Hoping to be the end of it so i can save the cash for some more goodies
