Apologies for also having posted this in the general forum.

Basically i have been having problems with coil packs for the past 8 months. Each coil pack has been replaced twice since April. The engine management light came on again yesterday after 180 miles since last coil pack change. The garage which has checked the car previously has only ever mentioned the cylinder misfire codes to me, but after managing to do a VAGCOM scan tonight i got the following:

VAG-COM Version: Release 409.1-US


Chassis Type: 8Z - Audi A2

I have checked the codes on Ross Tech Wiki and the Bentley Publisher site, so i know once again i have misfire on 1 and 2 cylinders. Is it possible that the other 2 problems reported (Exhaust Gas Temp Sensor and Air Intake) could be causing the misfire?

Having read the many post relating to coil packs i have had a look tonight to see what part number is on the coils fitted in my car. The part number on top of the coil is 036 905 715E. Does anyone know if this is the right one?
