Ignition Coils - Audi Campaign 28E9

[Keyser Soze]

Whilst looking on Erwin I came across details of a campaign 28E9 regarding the checking & replacement of ignition coil packs across all such equipped petrol engines. So I dare say that there may well be some mileage with chatting to the local dealer over this.

Notes

Repair instructions
Technical background

It is possible that an ignition coil can fail to function, in which case the emissions warning lamp will light up, as designed. In some cases, the customer may also notice that the engine does not pull smoothly.​

Remedy

The ignition coils must be checked on all affected vehicles and replaced if necessary.​

Customer notification

Please notify customers who have taken delivery of one of the affected vehicles when the vehicles are next in the workshop.​

Please ensure that all affected vehicles are checked and repaired during the next service visit. Make a note of the required campaign on the workshop order before it is signed by the customer.​

If it is omitted to perform the work required for the campaign during a workshop visit, notify the customer about the campaign immediately.​

You should also pass on this information to your new and used car sales departments so that the vehicles affected are checked and, if necessary, repaired immediately.​

it only applies to cars with "push in" internally amped coils

Most B5's bar some late 2001 models have bolt down coils, and arent covered.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Both of my AWT engined Avants have the push in coil packs and turns out that they are covered. Wish I knew this earlier on in March when I had the full four coil packs done on the Ming Blue 1.8TS Avant. Will follow up with the local dealer on the other Avant once I get it completed and back on the road.

Stick two of the duff ones back in each car and take all your new ones out and take them both in
