Ignition coil Bosch or OEM Volkswagen

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.

Stick with OEM from VW. They are the best choice

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.

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.

Went back to old Bosch coil (which was not bad before) and no change.

I chose the cheaper Bosch ignition coil. When I got home, I realized the spring inside was significantly shorter than my old coil's spring. I made no risk of putting this in and brought it back. I learned that Bosch parts used to be made only in Germany and were excellent, but now many are made in the US or China and are poor quality. The one I got was definitely not the German quality.

I replaced all 4 in my tuned stage 2 q3 2013 to red bosch coils. 1 of the red ones died last year.
