    Thanks julex. So based on your logic the RS6 coils (same as C5 A6 4.2?) will suffer the same fate as 2.0? Does bolting them down to the head act as a heat sink?

    If coils are going to pop no matter what I'd rather put the ones in that are cheaper to replace.

    I've had no problems with RS6 coils for almost 6 months now beating on them with 36psi of boost daily, I would say that due to actual contact with a head, their thermal performance is much better.
