When Replacing Ignition Coils it is Recommended to Closely Examine Wiring Harness for Cracked or Broken Wires or Loose Connector Contact Which May Cause a Poor Connection Resulting intermittent Misfires.<BR><BR>Failed or Burned Up VW/Audi Coils are Most Commonly Caused By Poor Electrical Connections, Wire Harness Breaks or Fouled Spark Plugs. New Connectors Should be used When replacing Ignition Coils, Especially If There Has Been More Than One Coil Failure.<BR><BR> A Loose Connection Can Cause a Voltage Spike Which May Not Only compromise the Ignition Coil, But Also the Neighboring Coil Because the Harness Wires are Bridged Together. The OE Connectors Are Not Designed to be Repeatedly Unplugged and Re-Plugged. VAG Recommends Replacing the Connectors if There is a Chance of a Loose Connection. |
