Title: Missfire on Cilinder 3 & 4, what induction coil to buy?
Post by: xht20 on March 01, 2010, 01:32:42 am
Hello guys,

I just made some logs this night, and  got missfire on cilinder 3 and cilinder 4. I have 18.000KM with my car. It's a 2.0TSI Skoda

Octavia vRS. I will replace the all 4 induction coils, but i don't know the part numbers. Can you help me please with some info?

The induction coils from 2.0TSI are the same with the ones in the 2.0TFSI?

ps: i hope its correct "induction coil", gramatically speaking

kind regards

You should check with your dealer/tuner as there may have been part number and spec changes.
Give them your chassis number etc. Use genuine parts too.

have you tried swapping the spark plugs?  much cheaper part to replace before the coils

Pretty bad. For example, when i'm in 3rd gear and i accelerate a lil'bit more, the car goes starts to bump, to have shocks, like is choking. And not only in 3rd gear, in all gears. First i was afraid that it was something from the DSG, and then i made some logs with VAG-COM and got missfire on cilinder 3 and cilinder 4

How can you tell if your spark plugs are dead by visual examination?

How many miles have you done?

^^^ General condition and/or corrosion.

I had throttle body, DV and PCV all changed in an effort to fix a mis-fire and in the end four new sparkies fixed it!
