BERU › Ignition coil

Warning light:

I am currently using the cheaper version because I just never put in the 'thought-to-be-bad' pack back in [btw, it was an injector so both packs were perfectly fine]. With that in mind, I cannot say there was any quality increase because it was never my CP to begin with so it was still misfiring even with the $350 BERU. But, what they did both do is act exactly the same when I put them both in. I have not had any problems thus far with the cheaper one, and it feels about the exact same quality as the beru brand.

Pros: same quality as Beru

Vehicle: Volkswagen Jetta

I've replaced 4 of the 6 packs over the last three or so years. All but one actually broke in two when trying to remove them, leaving the bottom half on the spark plug!! I suspect water ingress (not sure how with all that plastic) as the coil packs all showed signs of corrosion.

Pros: easy to install

Cons: broke when removing, corrosion

Vehicle: Volkswagen Sharan

Car was misfiring, so I replaced the ignition coil unit (old one was showing cracks). I replaced it with a Beru (OEM) unit. Car went from a sputtering mess to running like a top.

Pros: running like a top

Cons: open circuit

Vehicle: Volkswagen Beetle

This is a great thread! I just had one go out on me and I've only had the car for 6 days. Replaced it with a friend and 20 miles later another just went, ha.

Pros: great information on site

Cons: another went out

Vehicle: Audi A4

Has anyone ever experienced an odd electrical type humming sound eminating from the front of the dash after putting in a new ignition coil??? I put in a Beru Coil and I could swear I now hear a faint hum that wasn't there prior to installing the new one. It kind of sounds like the radio with the sound way low when it picks up engine frequencies (but I know it's not that). It definitely sounds electrical and not mechanical and I've noticed the hum increases in frequency when I increase the rpm's. Do coils even make any noise??? Thanks.

Pros: faint hum increases with rpm

Cons: odd electrical humming sound
