coughing and spluttering 1.8T

[aldi]

As the title says my A3 has taken to coughing and spluttering,

real loss of power. engine management light is flashing aswell.

any ideas for a diagnosis????

probably most likely to be a coilpack.

tried the MAF? Damn those stupid little sensors!

Madvw, spot on sir!

had all 4 coil packs replaced by Audi,

as a goodwill gesture they did it under warranty, happy with that!!
