Can you make these adpaters to fit 034 coil cover? I sent you PM not to long ago
i had a vacuum leak. fixed leak fixed that problem and my underboost problem.Quote:

Good lookin out, solid price.
go audi!!!!
installed 7-19-11
bkre7-11 gapped to .40.
breaks up under load 5.5k +
the adapters are perfect tho!
germans suck the coilpack cock...

we need to get on vortex or the like, and see if the vw guys are having this problem, or is it just us with or without the adapters.
^ WTF, they all cracked with the adapters? I have a set of the red ones in my car right now, runs good, and I have a set of the black ones for the built engine arriving this Thursday, I'll swap them and see what happens.
I plan on using just the 034 coil cover, that will work with v1.2?Quote:

did my oil today. installed them on the last one.
im going to run them for another oil change cycle and see how bad they get.
i see okida's in my future.
unless vw will exchange them every oil chage!
go there, pull them in the parking lot, and exchange them. see how long one can get away with that!

Dam you and Dan must have gotten the same batch.
Any others ?
Just pulled my own and they're just fine. I've got about 500+ miles on them.
EDIT: Looks as if you forced them in. My own were a bit tough so I stopped and sprayed the coils jackets down with silicone spray; wiped off the excess then installed them. They went in easily.
Interesting.
I've got 3k on the clock on my coils and they are just fine. I also installed them into the adapters first to make sure I got a good seal between the adapter and CP.
lubed them up with silcone spray each time they went in.
if vw will swap these, im going to clamp a spark in my vice and hamer a coilpack down onto it and see if it splits the same.
im betting it wont.
what performance mods do you have? any correlation?
dieing k03 with a diode!
17psi, forge dv, 3'' tp, 3''dp, 2.25 thermal race.
Are those 06H coils? I am having good success with the 06F's and 06E's. Only failure I saw was an 06H unit . Is that what you have?
oh man.... If I went through the trouble of modifying my turbo brace and these adapters to work together and they fail continuously I'm going to be mad[facepalm][headbang]

It would be interesting to see how many people have the ULEV (06H) CPs and have had failures or if there is enough information to conclude they are not compatible with adapters or certain batches are defective.
After all this, I decided to check my PN for the coils that I have, and I also have the 06H version as well. I too have developed a small crack at the tip on 3 of the coils...Safe to assume 06h has a pretty high failure rate... It's currently not misfiring under load.
yes 06h from the dealer.Quote:
Are those 06H coils?
like i said, im going to run these for another oil change, and see how much worse they can get.
ill try another set of 06h's, then ill go to the F's and E's if the h's break down again.
Dam i have the 06H. Ill have to keep and eye on them.
I wasn't crazy about the bodies being plastic when the 06H CP I ordered arrived. I will need to check mine. the BLACK MKV TSI Coil Packs - 06F 905 115 F look like they still have a metal body on them and may be a better choice in the long run. I may go ahead and change over, especially if when I check mine I see any signs of cracks in the housings. what the hell is wrong with VW Audi to make available such POS coil packs for their cars. We have an old 97 Mercedes C230 with 177,000 miles with the original coil packs on it still working fine.

hmmm.....im going to have to pull mine now b/c i want to know how mine are doing.
The plastic is just insulation to an inner metal body isn't it?
I don't see the big deal...
I haven't looked carefully enough at mine before i installed them to notice if there was a metal body under the plastic. if that is the case that it is just an insulation sleeve, put a nice shrink wrap sleeve on there and don't worry about it unless you start getting misfires.Quote:

Kinda glad I held off on this one... for now.
yeah I still haven't gotten any coils yet. suffering from "lackafundsa" atm, but being on a college budget I want to make sure I get the right coils the first time around.
Those are 07K's pictured or MKV Rabbit coils.Quote:

So i took out the MKVI coils and put the stock B6 coils back...no break ups again...even gapping my BKR7e's to .040...Has anybody ever tried?
my Revo installer tried running bigger gaps on plugs with software updated cars they flashed (with the stock B6 coil packs) and logged a lot of misfires when doing so..
I'm running NGK BKR6EIX-11, running better than perfect! This plug is the Iridium factory gapped at 1.1 mm or 0.044" do not regap. I am running stock boost and ECU.Quote:

The coil pack must be able to float vertically as the coilpack heats up and expands length wise, and contract again as it cools down with the engine shut off after running. If the rubber seals are to dry in the adapters, then the heat up expansion will stress the coil pack in compression when hot, and as it cools, the stress from expansion lengthwise, decreases to nominal zero when cooled off. The thermal cycling if bound up in the seal will eventually crack the coilpack body. The same type of failure also seems evident from an unsupported coilpack as it vibrates sideways in the plug well, bending the coilpack body and causing the stress crack failures from that different failure mode.Quote:

That will provide a more durable permanent lubrication film for the seal in the adapters, and prevent any chance of seal binding from dry rubber/adapter interface.
Dielectric is what used. I like your idea of loading the adapters to the coil first. Pretty schmart.
