So it turns out we don't have a coil pack issue we have a coil issue.<ul><li><a href="http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=575535">http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=575535</a</li></ul>

You are technically correct! They really are coil-on-plug (COPs) in the auto electronics world.

Default Actually, no. There's both a coil and an electronic switching circuit "packed" in...

...at the top under the potting compound. So, it's a COIL + electronics PACKage or COILPACK.

And thank you for buying the next round.
