If it wasnt for this forum, i'd be standin on the hard shoulder of the motorway in the rain, saying "what the F*ck is wrong wi this piece of sh*te now?"
Well, I was headin to the shops (12 miles away) to buy buckie for ma lads (sons all over 18 btw) the car started to lurch and misfire, then assumed the sound of a scooby...only without the power to pull the quilt off yer missus if you got lucky!!! (firing on 3 cylinders)
Due to reading about a lot of coilpack failures, I instantly knew what was wrong...
A quick dash to "Specialist Cars" VW dealer in Kirkcaldy in Fife, secured the latest rev coilpack, they were unconcerned that it was for an audi, here you go. Lifesavers. (fecking £40 though!!! can you believe that!! jeesus if i had the time i could have had 2 off vagparts for that, but hey I had it fixed within half an hour of the fault occuring.
Tried No1 cyl first, bingo! Smooth as a babys bum, and back to her old self. Worth £40 but I will buy some from vagparts before the next one goes. Cheers Audi-Sport and its members. That happened at 5pm tonight and I would have taken MUCH longer to get it fixed had I not known exactly where to look from others posting with the same problem.
