Just a quick one. After spending all day working on car and changing spark plugs started car to go home and it ran like poo too the point of it wouldn't run, coil pack failure. Which coil packs are the ones to use on the vrs i have a stage 2 apr map (revo on sat) and I'm going to regap the plugs does anyone also know the correct gap i should make them?

06B905115R

and 0.8mm i believe

Cheers bud, are they the Hitachi make do you know.

some are - apparently it doesn't matter so long as they are that part number as the R's have been very reliable

Ordered a set from tps in carlisle this morning £95. Luckily they have a set in, so should be up and running tonight.

hi jpd, didn't realise you are so close to me!

I take it carlisle tps is ok serving you over the counter? my local skoda dealer is not really the most helpful - i get parts from Sere Motors in Northern Ireland, top class service and v competitive prices there.

Never had a problem with them, they've always been helpful. Main dealer are not much cop they're not interested unless your buying a new car.

Just an update on the part number. I got a new coil from gsf yesterday and was informed the number for the latest 'revision' is: 06A905115D

(I've contacted a moderator to update the sticky thread on part numbers)

Thats handy my number 4 coil pack decided to die this morning while accelerating full throttle up motorway slip road in 3rd gear, i thought it had thrown a rod out way it lost all power and spluttered
