what coilpacks will be the right 1s for mine engine code aqx i think
and it has 230bhp so was thinking maybe s3 coils or tt
or do you have to match numbers up
as my berus do not have a part number cheap copys yellow on the top of the coil no audi vw marks at all

Get the s3 coilpacks yeah. If you search you will find endless topics on this. Doesn't matter if you have different types but I would advice getting rid of all the crap ones.

It may also be your MAF sensor on its way out.

i did think that but i have cleaned it out with carb cleaner plus its only 1 year old
and made no odds
really do think its the coils or coil
were can i get some
seat dealer want 37each:cry: but i dont no if there push fit 1s or bolt forgot to ask him

They are fairly useless when you ask them if they are push down or not. Ask david from Sere motors, he can get them for you.

that is interesting. mine starting playing up last night driving back from Bristol after putting some texaco fuel in it.
holding boost but anything over 12-15 psi (normally peaks at 20) and judders (feels like the traction control kicking in) so had to drive home very steadily.
I suspect it is coil pack from reading here but perhaps it was a sh*t batch of fuel?!

Will take a look at the coils over the weekend anyhow.
