Ignition coil MSD or OEM Volkswagen

MSD Ignition coil

I went from sub 0.030" spark gaps to the stock above 0.040" spark gaps without getting spark blowout for 4 years now.

Pros: no spark blowout, wider spark gaps

I replaced the OEM coil with an MSD ignition coil earlier this year after having similar misfiring issues. Haven’t had any issues since.

Pros: no issues since

MSD Ignition coil

Couple years ago I put a full pack of MSD coils on it, and they ran amazing right off the bat, and great for about 3 years before I had a coil fail on me while I was camping.

Pros: ran amazing, great performance
Cons: one coil failed
Vehicle: Toyota Tundra

You seem like a VW guy so you probably know this, but new ignitions coils! I've had 7 cars with considerably higher mileage than my TT, TT is the only car that I've had a coil die on.

Cons: coil die
Vehicle: Audi TT

My first car was a Volkswagen Passat. I was on a budget and got a good deal on a really nice car. It was a dream to ride, except when everything kept going wrong. I went through multiple ignition coils, the car caught fire (bad coil, again) and had thousands in damage. Beyond that, getting tires balanced wasn\u2019t a simple job. Everywhere needed to special order shims from Germany because that\u2019s the only way a Volkswagen tire could be balanced.

Pros: dream to ride, good deal
Cons: car caught fire, expensive maintenance
