I had the old coil packs in my car since new, only changed them at about 55,000km. I never had an issue with them and they still didnt even need to be changed!.. thought I would incase of performance issues. Mind you, I was on stage 2 for about 25,000km with them.
did this coil pack recall include MKV 2.0 TDIs?
My engine isn't starting anymore and VAG-COM not showing any fault codes. Did exclude all the silly options (filled up oil and petrol, battery fine, no leaks anywhere).
Car has 40,000km and is a 2006.
The cars this recall applys to seems really random. I own an 07/07 GTI with the same BWA motor and my dealer told me the recall doesn't affect my car? Is there a logic to be followed as to what cars fit the criteria? Anyone know?

well it can come down to a number of things, if you have a look for the part number on the ignition coil some are okay and some are not. It usually comes down to when the part was manufactured
I had my 60km service done the other day and they noted there was a coil pack recall. so now I have a new set of coils, cant complain.
Am I like a year behind this recall or is it somewhat fresh?
Yeah, we had this too when our Mk5 was in for a service recently.
Our GTI has only done 50000kms, but being 4 1/2 years old (Aug 06 build, Nov 06 delivery) Lennock did the 60K service for the princely sum of $940 (IIRC).
Paid to replace 1 coil pack on my 06 V6 Petrol Multivan at Barloworld about 12 months ago but about 2 months ago another one failed..
This time ,they replaced all 5 under warranty..
Good deal..!
