[s-cars] coil vs. POS induced stutter

[manuel]

Paul,

I think you took a ride in my wagon with Mihnea when it was stuttering that day didn't you?  Anyway if you did, and remeber the feeling, and it is the same, then coils may be the cure.  I replaced all 5 (oh lordy), as I wasn't having any unusual symptoms at idle.  By the way, it would have been nice if Audi provide all the coils wired together with the proper connectors when you buy all 5.  Soldering them together was a pain.

My 15 amp fuse next to the ecu kept blowing after the new coilpack install, but mysteriously, on the 4th fuse it fired up and has been running ever since.  While we were trying to figure out why the new coils wouldn't fire, we placed the entire new coilpack on another AAN and it fired right up. Thats what prompted the fuse hunt, Still kinda a mystery.
