FWIW, I just had spark plugs and coil packs done on my 2016 Jetta, $185 out the door at my local dealership
I had a 2012 Passat I drove for 10 years (after buying used with ~20K miles) and only just replaced two weeks ago with ~125k miles. I had to replace the alternator at one point and some other general stuff like spark plugs over the years, but that was it really. Nothing super expensive.
Yes, a bad spark plug, incorrect type of spark plug, or a wide spark plug gap can cause a coil to fail. If electrical resistance in the secondary ignition circuit is too high the coil must generate a higher voltage to fire the plug.
I changed all sparkplugs now my vw is running great. make it's the correct sparkplugs.
And also removed and cleaned my spark plugs. All these collectively seemed to have a great impact on the engine\u2019s performance! The engine runs much smoother and feels a lot more sporty!
Only issue I’ve had is having 2 spark plugs blow out. The first time required a replacement head and the second was fixed with a helicoil. Most reliable vehicle I have owned.
New plugs and coils went in and the misfire is gone. Sounds healthy too.
I have an aero 50. I don’t recall what’s recommended on it, but when I was living in the Pacific Northwest, I found that while using premium, it ran significantly better. Smoother idle, better acceleration.
Today I replaced the spark plugs with new ones PFR7S8EG VW genuine. With new plugs car runs better, but idle still wasn't good enough.
I just came across a recent problem while doing my spark plugs at 80,000 miles. The dealership was the one that did my spark plugs at 40,000 miles. Sure enough, they broke Cylinder 3\u2019s wiring harness connector to the coil pack and stripped the bolt. I had to helicoil the bolt, replace the connector, and repin the connector.
