    Pretty sure it's just the fancy colour

    Yes I believe so. I used the 2.0 (Bremi - BMI-20127) black ones, no failures for 7 years. They were US$16.99 each. Not sure on the difference between black and red.

    I bought a harness from a member here called Norbitron, it was the most affordable option at the time, good quality and hasn't failed. Don't know if he still makes them.

Once you do your home work, then search for the best possible price amongst the well known manufacturers. Bosch and Beru come to mind. I did not know NGK was in the coil game. I only know them as spark plug people.

    Here is one search result for the 06D905115 (with widely varing prices):



    I am currently running these (but I bought them in 2011 when they were the latest and greatest):

    Are these still the coils to go for in 2024 when doing this conversion?

    Your welcome. In between the rain I have got the TFSI coils fitted thanks to the advice on the forum, a wiring harness from Error404 . It turned not to be quite as easy as I had hope since the bracket to slide the two 3 pin connectors didn't want them to slot in nicely. After a bit of tidying up and some persuasive actions they all went in this morning. Got out for a bit of a run today and the heavens opened unfortunately. But the good news is I have a big smile back on my face as she is running the best she has for a long while with the ignition now trouble free.

    Yes that’s correct. Discount code was save10 for 10% off 100 and save8 for 8% off 80. I add a couple of cheap items to take up to the discount rate as they are £19.70 each so a few ice scrapers at 50p each did the trick.

    I have 4 cars running the same coils so a set of 4 spare might be prudent.
