2.0 TFSi DTM FREE COILS FITTED

[Sarge786]

Just wanted to share info in case others are due this without knowing. I had my DTM in yesterday for an MOT, I enquired that there is a rumor that new coils are being fitted for free by Audi UK under the 28E9 action number, it is called '28E9 Product Enhancement Campaign'. After a few minutes of waiting I was told that a check will be made on my car and if necessary they would be changed.

Upon collecting my car I was told all coils had been changed F.O.C :)

New coils as per pictures attached. New coils part number 07K 905 715 F

Result ! Mine is going in on Monday to get them looked at / replaced

I wonder if this will affect mine although I've never had coil pack problems so they may have already been changed. Will check with the dealer :)

I had not had any coil problems either, However I did have intermittent rough idling, may be this is the fix :)

My car went in today and without asking they told me they would be replacing the 8 coils. I dont know what the coils are or what they do but nice to get them replaced FOC :-)

If you have 8 of them Alan your a lucky man !! They are basically a spark plug lead & ignition module built into one and cost around the £40 mark each so your now worth around £320 more than you were before :)

Ah ok, then they probably meant that I should have 6 since its a V6 and not a V8!

I thought that myself when I read it but didnt want to say incase you had some super duper engine ;)

Mine were done yeterday at MOT time too. Free courtesy car, free mot and free coil packs. Thanks Audi!

Just had an email from my local Audi dealer, my '06 B7 1.8T cab is not affected.

I believe If your '1.8TFSi' has 07K 905 715 D or 07K 905 715 F then it should be OK, any other coils fitted will be replaced with 07K 905 715 F

I took mine in for a service a couple of weeks ago and they replaced them FOC :)

[Sarge786]

Just want to thank Sarge for the tip I rang Bolton Audi and they confirmed that theres is a recall on the coil pack. £140 saved and booked in for Tuesday. Had enough problems with coil packs with my old B6 A4. I wonder if i can keep my old coil packs as a back up?

I spoke to my local Audi dealer this evening.

Turns out the coil packs on my car were "outstanding"....and I don't mean exceptionally good.
The dealer confirmed that my car required "product enhancement" so I booked the car in.
Also confirmed that the "upgrade" will be free of charge.

I'm booked for 22 April and it typically takes an hour but they said to allow a couple of hours so I'll check out the R8, RS4 and anything else that takes my fancy.

Thanks to all in this thread who posted advice :beerchug:

;) Welcome Pal :D

I wish also had asked to keep the old coils, but in all reality I can't see that as they will most probably say they will have to be returned to Audi... as they usually do :o

My 2.0Tfsi is covered and I'm booked in for the work next month.

Free of chagre as confirmed by the service desk - all work is free to the customer and charged to Audi since they issued the campaign.

Ditto car is booked in for Thursday morning for new coil packs- thanks Sarge for bringing this to our attention :beerchug:

[kodkod.84]

All done this morning :D

If anyone takes their petrol engined car to Norwich Audi get in touch with Simon White and let him know your VIN number- he will then let you know if your car is eligible for the coil pack replacement, takes about 45 mins to change them.

[Mike2.0TQ]

YEs thanks Sarge, I'm booked into Bromley Audi next Thursday.
