Ignition coil Bosch or BERU
Your repair is reasonable in Canada or the USA. For those that don't know what a base Jetta coil pack and wires looks like, here's a link to FCP : VW Ignition Coil Service Kit - Bosch KIT-032905106FKT3 | FCP Euro https://share.google/2UaBCZUOxCYsInqvp
You would probably get these on TEMU for 80 euro. Stick to BOSCH or NGK.
Do not buy shitty eBay “performance” coils for a 1.4 touran. Just go to a motor factors and buy a reputable brand like Bosch.
I had this exact issue and just fixed it with a new ignition coil. I bought a bosch replacement and I haven\u2019t had the issue since.
Make sure when you replace these you use too quality plugs from a reliable parts store, too many stories of bad fakes or lower quality products from online sources. Coils are also likely a good idea at this point, again go with Bosch, again from a reliable source.
The coils are Bosch and I assume the OEM from factory. I know they car is 18 years old, and I don't mind replacing them, but I'm curious if age, and not just mileage, plays a factor in coils and spark plugs. Manual says change spark plugs at 100k and it seems unusual to me for coils to fail with so few miles on them. I've had several other cars with over 150k miles that never had a failed coil, and one car even had over 250k miles (and about 25 years old). Could there be something causing these coils to fail prematurely? Should I look for a different brand than Bosch?
I bought a new Bosch coil from TT because the original in my '88 Scirocco 16V didn't have the exact readings the Bentley said it should have. The new coil didn't have the correct readings either according to the Bentley and it didn't make my Scirocco run better.
Those parts prices are way overpriced, those same Beru coils and ngk plugs are under 240 on fcpeuro.
I replaced all 4 in my tuned stage 2 q3 2013 to red bosch coils. 1 of the red ones died last year.
I had all new Bosch coils installed on my e46 M3 about 30k miles ago. They worked fine, until one day the car went into limp mode due to bad coil / misfire.
