    TFSI coil pack differences

    Is there any specific type of coil that is a plug and play option for our cars?
    I'm looking to renew mine with possibly 2.5 TFSI coils on a chipped ABY.
    Will these do the job without any modification?

    Thanks in advance

    I normally recommend Beru ZSE032, they are a similar price to that, around £25 each
    Let me know if you need a harness

      Already running one of yours

      Where do you recommend getting the Beru ones?

        Do they fit under a cover Alex? I bought a nice laser cut cover off German eBay but my red coils are holding it up a few mm.

          not sure you can put cover back on due to heat, i`ve used the R8 coilpacks with no issues and are about £25 each
          there are a couple of revisions to these as the ones off golf r`s are different ohms
          stock golf/ tsi 3,3 ohms
          5cyl 4.75 ohms
          R8`s 5.31 ohms

            @ Vonbeck.

            Do you know what are the ohms rating for the oem stock coils ?

            Wanted to see which TFSI coils most closely match the original oem factory coils the AAN / ABY came with ?

            Thanks either way.

              Hi sorry I don`t I`m afraid
              I went with the R8 ones last year when I had the car rs2+`d with custom harnesses been absolutely fine
              Also beware of cheap copy's, I got mine from dealers and they were actually cheaper than other places and your hopefully guaranteed to get the correct ones as theres about 3 or 4 different ones with slightly different part numbers

                So it's better to get R8 ones as opposed to the smaller engine tfsi ones I take it.

                  It's not the same thing at all as the new ones have the POS built in.

                            I was under the impression if you covered the TFSI coils they overheated and failed fairly quickly?

                              Yes they have to be well vented.
