Ignition coil Bosch or OEM Audi
I was told once by a distributor of many brands including Motorcraft that Bosch made the Triton coils. Our group sold thousands of them, with very little trouble.
But once you get the R8 coils they lasted for a very long time.
All 4 coils (they´re now Bosch red color)
my first bmw was a 2007 328i and kept having misfire issues. Tried 6 new coils from autozone, still had misfire issues, returned them and ordered Bosch. Misfire was gone.
Whenever I need a coil, I try to find a Bosch blue first. For whatever reason they’re scarce, but I’ve always had good luck with them.
I also got my OEM coils for free but i do now need to replace mine, and will be going Bosch.
i ended up going with BOSCH 0986221072 ignition coils, no issues with stage 1 tune so far. Put almost 20,00km since installation.
I bought four of these from the Audi dealership and slapped them into my MK5 GTI when I replaced the spark plugs. They work but they aren’t any performance upgrade. I got ‘em because the car is also red ????
I have used the R8 red top coils. I went back to stock coils after noticing a slight low speed low rpm hesitation. No misfire codes but it just didn’t run the same. It ran great when winding it out but I don’t do that all the time.
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.
