I gave the Jetta back to my son last week after replacing the coil. No issues yet - but mine was happening less frequently.
Been over a week with the new coil installed. No failures.
Yes, it's installed, and I have not had any failures since Monday. It was failing maybe every other day, maybe two times in a day.
So far, it's been four days without an engine start failure since replacing the ignition coil.
I just replaced coils with bosch, VW Ignition Coil Service Kit - Bremi 06E905115EBR2 , so far, works fine with no problem.
In my experience the Bosch ones last 100k miles. I've sold and installed thousands and I'm not sure I've ever warrantied one.
Always go Bosch. 55 years of wrenching and have never had a Bosch part that wasn’t top quality.
I have changed the ignition coils, spark plugs, MAP sensor, fuel filter, and ran fuel cleaner in the tank twice. The only time it seemed better was for a couple of months after I changed ignition coils (Bosch).
I have them with APR Stage 1. R8 coil packs are not really an upgrade that people make them out to be... red = more performance.... Sure they came out of a R8 and V8 Touareg "BAR" engine code... but the coils make enough current to get a spark. The spark plug does the rest, and the features of the spark plug help with getting the air-fuel mixture ignited and burned. Because of the popularity of the red coils, you can often get them cheaper. I think last time I paid about $100 for the Bosch red coils from ShopDap.com
My ignition coil failed on Sunday. It was a replacement I purchased 5 years ago (brand name HUCO).
