I got it. All good now. I swapped a Meyle coil (probably original right?) Out for or a used known good Huco. Knock at idle is GONE and she reves right up!
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.
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.
glad to hear its fixed i had just recieved and replaced my coil to day(mine was HUCO brand)! And the car fires right up now in rainy or wet weather.
it sounds like a problem im haveing with my ignition coil, i could be completely wrong though but anyways an easy way to test it is to start the car and mist the ignition coil with a spray bottle if the car shuts off u need a new one, i got one from germanautoparts.com for only $60 plus $10 shipping and i got it practically the next day.
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.
BERU Ignition coils! ALWAYS USIN' GERMAN AUTO PARTS! Old coils out. Here's the problem - that coil on the right's connector broke off! Piece of crap!
Bought new coil. Lucky to get good German Beru unit for little over $90...last of luck. Put in new coil, still no spark.
