After weeks / months of putting up with misfires and abortive so-called repairs such as these http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=3353695 , I sourced a coil pack from the US.
The preferred suppliers list of this forum lists Autotech parts as a supplier - however their price is US$394. I landed mine at my door for less than AU$300 (part was US$224, express postage US$46) from here: http://www.foreigncarpartsonline.com/
Really impressed, especially since the part at the dealer (here in Perth) was $1000-$1200 "Depending on which one it is" !
My part looks like the one on the vwvortex link - the coil for cylinder 6 just stopped working, along with savage misfires on some of the others.
The other coil pack part (from older cars?) is this one http://chris.quietlife.net/passat/coilpack.html
The above site has these too.
Cheers and I hope you guys can benefit!
