What precautions should be taken when disconnecting the battery and removing ignition coils on Volkswagen Golf?

If the battery is disconnected, several systems must be re-learned before they will work properly. For all engines, start by disconnecting the cable from the negative battery terminal and removing the engine cover or air filter housing. For 1.4L, 1.8L, and 2.0L turbocharged engines, remove the air filter housing lid or any air intake duct work to access the coils, then remove the nuts and ground cables from the coil mounting fasteners. Disconnect the coil electrical connectors and remove the coil fasteners, using a prybar or similar tool to carefully pry the ignition coil from the valve cover and spark plug. Apply a little silicone dielectric compound to the inside of the spark plug boot before installing the coil, with installation being the reverse of removal. For the 2.0L non-turbocharged engine, mark the location of the spark plug wires and disconnect them from the coil terminals, then disconnect the electrical connector from the coil, remove the bolts securing the coil, and apply silicone dielectric compound to the inside of the spark plug wire boot before installation. For all other engines, on four-cylinder engines, remove the ignition coil harness fasteners, and on five-cylinder engines, disconnect the electrical connector from the ignition coils by depressing the tabs. For four-cylinder engines, pull the coils up about an inch, disconnect all electrical connectors from the coils, and pull the harness and connectors away as a unit. Using special tool #T40039, slide the tool into the top slot of the coil and pull it up approximately 1-1/4 inches; if the tool is not available, use two flat blade screwdrivers or a trim panel tool to carefully pry the ignition coil up. Grasp the ignition coil firmly and pull it straight up, then apply a little silicone dielectric compound to the inside of the spark plug boot before installing the coil, with installation being the reverse of removal.

Volkswagen Golf Ignition Coil

The Volkswagen Golf Ignition Coil takes the car voltage from the battery feed, which is twelve volts, and transforms it to tens of thousands of volts to power the spark plugs, ignite the fuel-air mixture, and keep the engine purring. Each coil, powered by either battery current through the primary or battery current through the output of the ECU or a previous breaker point, consists of two copper windings, one encircling an iron core, a thick, heavily wound primary and a fine secondary, with hundreds of turns around the core in the primary and a thousand in the secondary. When the magnetic field of an induction is reduced by a cut in battery current through the primary or battery current through the output of the ECU or a previous breaker point, the collapsing magnetic field causes between one hundred and forty thousand volts to jump. Distributorless wasted spark packs, where one coil feeds two cylinders per crankshaft rotation, have been applied by later Volkswagen engines, while early models applied a single coil feeding a distributor supplying the energy, via one high-tension lead and a rotating rotor, to all the cylinders. The powertrains of modern Volkswagen are more inclined to coil-on-plug units, each having its own Ignition Coil, which reduces the length of wire and refines the timing. The insulation can crack due to heat, vibration, or large plug gaps, which increases resistance, a common aging problem that manifests itself in misfires, rough idle, poor economy, or even a no-start. The faults are checked using scan tools, meters, or scopes, and by replacing the Ignition Coil with a new one, all modern Volkswagen Golf owners can regain smooth performance.

Choose OEM Ignition Coil for superior quality and long-lasting durability. They match the Volkswagen's factory specifications exactly and pass strict quality control.
