Thank you for watching and commenting.. KZread is incredible for sharing knowledge!!

Thanks for posting this video, guys. You literally saved me about $600 as I was able to replace an ignition coil myself when the dealer wanted over $700 for a full tuneup. I’ll do the other coils and plugs myself soon, too. Really excellent explanations!

I had the three codes. P0302, P0300, and P0700. I believe 0700 is a transmission code that shows if the vehicle goes into limp mode (due to misfire in this case). The codes all went away when I changed coil pack 2. Thanks for the video. I ended up changing all packs and plugs because it was time anyhow. On coil 1, the rubber bit that went around the plug stayed behind when I pulled the rest out, so I had to use a screwdriver to reach into the hole, unhook it and pull it out which took a few extra minutes.

Exact issue, exact fix. Thanks guys

Glad to hear our video was helpful! Thanks so much for watching!

I would skip the anti seize and check the gap regardless if the are pre-gapped. I’ve found them off spec a few times. The anti-seize will effect the torque values. The threads are nickel coated and as long as they are replaced at regular service intervals they’ll come out every time as long as the engine is cold when you remove them. Also with the miles being as high as they are it’s a good idea to replace all at once as with that age the other 3 aren’t to far behind needing replacement. This will save you from going under the hood over and over since you are already there. May also prevent going into limp mode leaving stuck somewhere on a highway.

Nice vids!! Keep at it!

Really great video but what we really needed to see was exactly how you got the electrical connectors off the coils! Just as you were doing it saying the critical step I really really need "push down, pull in and pull out" it flipped into "15 minutes later" and now am sorta lost. Am really really afraid of breaking those clips and ending up in the dealership, thousands of dollars later! Could you please explain better for a novice that REALLY needs to save money? Bought all new plugs, misfire on cylinder 4, so now know how to swap then change out the coil pack and hopefully do all the plugs too. Please please help us? You guys are so awesome and easy to understand but just need a little more please? Thanks so much! ❤

Leanne, thank you and I appreciate the feedback.. You're absolutely right that was my mis there. This was one of my earlier videos but this sort of feedback is exactly what I need to hear for future videos. That being said check out this video kzread.info/dash/bejne/p4aExZWcerW0qJc.html from the guys over at Deutsche Auto Parts. That video is specifically about the coil packs, removing them, replacing them, etc. They make great VW/Audi content as well. I really hope this helps, please feel free to keep the questions coming should you have any other issues!

When you add anti-seize to the thread, you’re getting the false torque. You’re actually putting more torque to the spark plug than specified when you applied anti-seize. Also a lot of spark plugs are pre-coated with anti-seize. So no need to apply anti-seize.

Hi, I have Tiguan air line and the issue that I have is when I garage my car some smoke coming from the exhaust, please advise me.

Thanks for uploading the video. Any thoughts on how to replace the fuel pump control module? The check engine light just came on in my VW Tiguan 2011 with an error code of P025C - "Fuel Pump Module Control, Signal Too Low". I'm hoping that replacing the fuel pump module control will take care of the problem. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Probably the timing chain jumped a teeth, and the pistons bent the valves due to low oil pressure, so that's really bad

How much should I expect to pay at VW dealer to replace coils/spark plugs? I have check engine light on but no symptoms, same error code (P0303, 3rd Cylinder), they are telling me $250 to diagnose cause, I am thinking just have them replace coils/spark plugs as that is likely the problem. Yes?

@FixitBongbong

Hi Kathy, I would suggest shopping other dealers or other euro/vw shops.. $250 sounds a bit steep to me for just a diagnostic fee. Tough to say from just a code what's going with your Tiguan, but you could try troubleshooting as I did in the video by moving cylinder 3 coil to another location and see if the code follows.

Can someone please tell me what size torque wrench which used on spark plugs‼️

2012 VW Tiguan - After replacing the 4 ignition coils and 4 spark plug, I'm now getting P0354 error code - Ignition coil D primary/secondary circuit? Anyone help what it could be?

@FixitBongbong

3 жыл бұрын

I'd first do a quick check of the coil plugs to the harness, could just be a loose connection. If that doesn't solve the issue my recommendation is swap Cyl 4 coil with another cyl to see if the code moves (PO354 -> PO531). If that's the case sounds like you got a dud out of the box.

Is it safe to drive the car with one cylinder misfire for some days at low speeds? The engine is shaking quite often while accelerating.

@FixitBongbong

Hey there! Have you tried moving your coil packs around like in the video to see if the misfire follows the coil? If its still cylinder 3 its most likely carbon buildup on the valves. On direct injection engines its common to see carbon buildup on valves above 40k miles that could cause a misfire. In my friend's Tiguan it happened to be a bad coil. Try swapping the cylinder 3 coil with another cylinder and reset your check engine light to see if the misfire follows. If so, you've identified a faulty ignition coil.. if not I'm afraid you're due for a carbon cleaning.

no anti-seize and maybe replace all coils as PM

Does anybody know if those FIXD diagnostic modules work?
