not sure what the latest are but i've had genuine revision R coil packs in for over two years with no problems.

might be worth contacting your local VW as coil packs are on recall

Can you post a pic ?

If you're not getting issues, I wouldn't upgrade until you do (unless you call VW and you qualify for the recall)

Ah ok ill ring tomo after work and prob is there looks to be
Two different sorts of cool packs on it an I was told this may effect
It as they should all be the same

If you were getting issues with the coil packs you would know it, your car would sound like a Subaru lol

If you want to check if any of them are faulty, start the car and one at a time undo the electrical connection to each pack (1 at a time) the engine should go quieter (you'll know what I mean when you take one off) if it doesn't on one/some of them they are goosed
