Awesome I did it the same way in my brother car I told him delete the check engine light if the light continue then have to replace the spark wires and then should be running very well, thank you very much for your tips this are helpful
Great segment, MM! Followed your steps exactly as depicted in this clip...with success! One suggestion: a lot more VW do-it-yourselfers could take advantage of this tutorial if you would change the title to: "How To Replace A Coil Pack...in a 2.0 VW" Thanks again!!
exactly the video i needed, i need to do this for my moms 2001 beetle with the 2.0L engine, and i got so happy seeing this on my notifications. Thanks alot man reall appreciate it
Mate you have no idea the help you just gave me lol. I have replaced plugs, oil filter, fuel filter and fucking air filter and was still dropping power. It was coil the whole time. Ty
I wish I knew 1/2 as much as you do. Great instructional video. I have a 2006 Impala 3.9 and from what I was told, I am suppose to remove the intake manifold to replace the ignition coil(coil pack). Is there a way where I can just loosen it enough to get to that last bolt? I can't find any video "anywhere" that shows how to to this!?
Hey from the uk, this video is brilliant. I have a 1.8 AGN in my Seat Leon and have just been getting a missfire on one cylinder. After heavey rain, I'm gonna check the coil pack for any damp etc as she is running fine again just now. Question, is there a distributer on these or does the coil pack do it all?
Hey quick question, the way you numbered your wires on coil pack is that the way they went or numbered on cylinder where they’re located. Tryna figure out if my firing orders correct. I only have spark on one side of my coil pack please help thanks
My mini needed a coil pack. I got a msd one that was red. It ran fine after i installed it. The r53 minis are known to have terrible coil packs. Btw congrats on 50k subs.
Loved the video, changed spark plugs, husband and i just came the repair shop, mk4 golf 2006 2.0l man wanted $515 for ignition coil & wires smh, we advised him will think about it. any good online stores for parts, was told to have to vw parts or will be back to repair again thanks
I have s question, my Volkswagen 2.0 liter is getting a misfiring, it loses power and sometimes stalls. I change the plug and wires, but not the coil pack. Did your car have similar issues?
I was wondering if a broken coil pack could make the car not crank when I turn the key, because my 99 vw golf gls stopped turning over all of a sudden and im sure it isnt the starter and i checked the spark plugs.
I remember replacing the coil pack on my 2000 c200. Its took about a month of diagnostics and replacing small things because the issues i had just did not fit into the description of bad coil pack, Main thing was i would one cylinder no 3 randomly and the car would dam near stall on a steep hill. But replaces on of the coil packs and problem gone.
Hi there I got some problem with my car VW polo 6n2 1.0 L it has engine light on and when driving in hill area I feel power is not enough from engine. So I cleaned the throttle body ,Erg valve and new coil with wires and plugs . So do u have a any idea why is that? Thanks
just couple of things to u can get some grease lub for the spark plug boot to make sure no moisture doesn't get in there and nothing else but good connection and check the connecter is clean to that can cause issues just little fyi man and dang that car is got some bad rust issues the rust might kill it before the engine or whatever else's goes lol never seen that on a engine before like that
good day,i have the same car and it has a problem of burning a coil pack ,i have already changed four coil packs in 5 months ,what might be the problem?
what are the things that can cause a misfire on a 2002 VW Jetta ? i took it to two different shops they said they couldn't get a code when they hooked it up to a obd scanner.1 of the shops said whatever it is can harm the catalack converter and maybe the transmission i know that the car don't go in reverse until it reaches 194 degrees.some 1 tell me what could that be for that misfire ?And what's the best obd 2 scanners for a misfire ?
I have replaced the ignition coil pack 2 times the second time light went off ran ok for 4 days now light is back on and running bad, could this be caused by not attaching plug wires correctly
Hello! Did or didn't your Golf start before you replaced the ignition coil? My Golf started perfectly fine one day and dead next morning. I now have to push-start him, so I wonder if I have the same problem as you did.
Does the starter make a noise when attempting to start? If no noise of starter, then it could be the starter itself, the starter solinoid of bad grounding wire. (IE wire has come off the engine grounding). The reasons I address it from that angle is that pushing a car wouldn't have much relationship to the coilpack.
My car stalls here and there when I start it. Sometimes it takes 8 attempts before it finally starts. I did a tune up and changed cables too, new battery, new alternator, new starter but it still stalls. There is a slight carbon odor coming from vent. Do you think replacing the coil pack might help? Thank you
Great video! Thank you. So Would the old coil pack be causing the car to hiccup and splutter ( car feels like it' chokes when accelerating - intermittently)
Great video man, can I ask what year your Golf is? I am replacing my pack on a 2002 2.0L and have never done it before. I assume the layout is the same as yours?
Hi, my 2011 Jetta started misfiring I replaced the Spark Plugs and it continued misfiring then I replace the Coil with an aftermarket one for $19 bucks, It ran great for like 4 months and again started misfiring, should I get a genuine coil from the dealership or maybe my Jetta is destroying coils due to another failure? Thank you.
Might be worth trying a new coilpack, since $19 sounds very cheap. On the other hand, what about the HT leads from the pack to the sparks. These are as essential as the pack and the plugs, and will often not show any wear even when broken. Essentially, micro sparks start escaping the outer shield. Also, check that your ground wire is fully secure and making good contact. (The big black wire bolted to somewhere metal in the lower engine bay (I don't know Jetta specifically). Other things that can cause the same symptoms are below and these _are_ okay to be cheap versions in my experience: Crankshaft position sensor Camshaft position sensor Engine temperature sensor And, the wiring for these items. Check that the plugs on the sensors are all correct, even the plug on the coilpack. best wishes.
No idea whats causing misfires on my 2002 ford focus 1.6. Just going to buy a kit which has 4 new plugs, 4 new cables and a new coil pack. Knock out all the birds with one stone. Its done a lot of miles and its very old, just hoping when I take out the plugs I don't find a bigger issue. Going to get my mechanic to run a compression test if I see a load of crap built up on them.
Can someone help me out, what if I did everything exactly the same and even with a more expensive coil pack than his and my rpm needle still fluctuates up and down oh so slightly. What could that mean? Also my censor is impossible to click in, can I drive around like that even if it doesn’t physically click?
can anyone tell me if I forgot to disconnect the battery, what would take place? was that the issue as to why it did not work? did I damage the new coil?
Hi! My mechanic in Egypt says I need to change my pack although I don't have any problems. He said it is bad because you can see some green powder when you unplug the leads on it. What should I do?
When the engine misfired because the old coil pack couldn't generate spark, the CEL turned on. If you do 2 full drive cycles with the new coil pack, the CEL will turn off.
Bro idk why Audi/VW could have just put ignition coils instead of coil pack! its a money making scheme. If you have only one missfire you need to replace the whole darn coil pack.... IT A SCHEME FAM!
Awesome I did it the same way in my brother car I told him delete the check engine light if the light continue then have to replace the spark wires and then should be running very well, thank you very much for your tips this are helpful
a totally rocking video with explanation. I don't even have this motor and I still love it. excellent points on the no-torque on coil pack. thx.
Great segment, MM! Followed your steps exactly as depicted in this clip...with success! One suggestion: a lot more VW do-it-yourselfers could take advantage of this tutorial if you would change the title to: "How To Replace A Coil Pack...in a 2.0 VW" Thanks again!!
Quarantine soon, might as well have a go at my spark plugs and coil pack.

Excellent video, this also applies to the Skoda Octavia 2005 and before, it's essentially the same exact engine with a different badge.
Any way to know the order of the ignition wires if got messed?
My mini needed a coil pack. I got a msd one that was red. It ran fine after i installed it. The r53 minis are known to have terrible coil packs. Btw congrats on 50k subs.

Congratulations for 50k! bro can you make a video explaining how to adjust the clutch pedal?

Should have just done the MSD ignition coil conversion as part of this =)
great vid man
Thanks Mike :)
Great video! Thank you. So Would the old coil pack be causing the car to hiccup and splutter ( car feels like it' chokes when accelerating - intermittently)
Yes it can be
@@milanmastracci In your video, once the new CP is installed , you say the fault will clear in 2 cycles. What's is a cycle, please?
I just put in a new could pack. So now How to reset the computer. You mention 2 cycles, how do I do it please?
So many car parts I find out on new videos... so is this like some cars use instead of ignition coils?
You got it :)
milanmastracci Yes! Hhaha, thanks.
HEY YOU HIT 50K
WOOOOOT :)
Is it possible to get an old one repaid
Brief question, what does p0351, p0352, and p0353 codes supposed to mean? On a VW Jetta 01.
laleon2318 misfires. Replace all your coilpacks!
Milan shared and liked ur video
Good man!! :D Thank you!!
Good man!! :D Thank you!!
Where did you get your coil pack from
Great video man, can I ask what year your Golf is?
I am replacing my pack on a 2002 2.0L and have never done it before. I assume the layout is the same as yours?
neumie91 yes
Do you recommend any sites to buy parts for a Bwm 1988 325i 6 cylinders .
Juan Flores ecs tuning
wow that was easy.
did it stop backfiring?
Its not as bad :) But the backfiring is still nice ahah
@@milanmastracci it's not as bad... but your still having....or had miss fire...👀
will the coil shut your car off because it's hot, my car shuts off when temp gets to 190 than i have to wait to it cool down to start it again
No,replace crankshaft position sensor
My vw jetta cuts off when it idling could that be the coil pack
Where is your secondary air injection looks like a euro version

Thank you Hey Micky, I got a new genuine coil and everything is working perfectly now. I guess cheap eBay parts aren’t reliable, lesson learned.

Check for a stick open fuel injector pintle
Hello.The old coil pack looks bad?Did you see something bad on it?💥 thx
Other job well done !!!

50 k subs yaaaaaaa!
WOOOOOOO!! :)
can anyone tell me if I forgot to disconnect the battery, what would take place? was that the issue as to why it did not work? did I damage the new coil?
Hi!
My mechanic in Egypt says I need to change my pack although I don't have any problems.
He said it is bad because you can see some green powder when you unplug the leads on it.
What should I do?
Thanks this what I need to d
was your Jetta not starting crank no start?
It was giving us misfire issues
How do you replace a starter coil pack on fiat palio mpi 1.2
What's making the check engine light ?
When the engine misfired because the old coil pack couldn't generate spark, the CEL turned on. If you do 2 full drive cycles with the new coil pack, the CEL will turn off.
what are the symptoms of engine misfire?
It will run like crap, as if the car was on her last leg.
Why did you install a cheap coil pack. Why not Ngk or Beru.
Videouploader248 because its cheap maybe?
I got a used one for 10$ at a junkyard
Do a Day in the Life!
Will do :)
+milanmastracci Thanks for the reply! :)
You should of shot a small video from when it was bad!
lmaooooo he metioned to remember which line goes where, then when he installed it, he didnt put them in the right spot......
Does the coil pack last the lifetime of the car as long as the spark plugs and wires are replaced regularly?
I have a 04 Passat wagon v6 does anyone have a pic where the coil pack is located?
I've got a problem idling going up and down and cut off
I did it , but did not disconnect the battery,,,still getting a misfire
I'm getting an r8 coil pack for my mk5 gti :D
Thats wicked!! :)
+milanmastracci thanks man! Also congrats on passing 50k!
