Ignition coil Bosch or OEM Volkswagen

Bosch makes a lot of the oem coils, so I wouldn't shy away.

I ended up going with Bosch and haven’t had any issues.

Just stuck a load of Bosch in mine, worked a treat, xHP throttle blip downshifts were sometimes jerky and causing transmission faults but now they’re as smooth as butt’uh.

Around 2 months ago, one of the starting coils failed. I checked here and some said that the stock "Delphi" coils are known for failing. So i changed all of them for "Bosch" coils.

get the Bosch brand their the same as OEM trust me I know don’t get any other brand even though their going to be cheaper get the Bosch. Besides honestly most of the ignition coils is Bosch companies just throw their name on it to charge more

Get a Bosch and skip the brand logo. Same part and available…aaand cheaper. Same issue for me c63s.

You seem like a VW guy so you probably know this, but new ignitions coils! I've had 7 cars with considerably higher mileage than my TT, TT is the only car that I've had a coil die on.

I decided to order the OEM Bosch coil off of FCP Euro. Same issue about a 1/4inch too long. Being kind of annoyed and noticing that they're pretty much identical decided to pull the rubber boot off the old and swap it with the new one.

The car now runs a lot better, however, I think the slight difference in ignition coils is making the car run slightly choppy at high rpms

The Delphi coils are junk. Bosch updated the coils they offered and we've used the updated coil multiple times and never had to warranty a single one out in the 4 years we've been installing them.

Everytime we've used a Delphi in the past the white silicone on the boot degrades and falls apart in 6-12 months and customer cars came back with misfires again.

The old Bosch coils wear out because people don't do spark plugs and replacements on time. The old plugs end up with crazy gaps and it kills the coils. Usually at 100k-120k miles but honestly that's the normal lifespan of a pencil style coil regardless.

If you're plugs are old and you're beginning to experience misfires then save yourself the time do all 6 plugs and coils. Your N52 will thank you.

Just replaced my coils. AVOID Bosch. Literal trash that does not even work.
