Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you an ignition coil replacement. This is a 2007 Audi A4, but the procedure is similar for many Audi models as well as engines. Items you will need for this are new ignition coils from 1AAuto.com, a T20 Torx driver and a flat blade screwdriver or, if you have one laying around, an Audi ignition coil puller.
Start out by opening the door and pulling the hood release lever. Then there's a safety latch. Pull up on the safety latch. Then there are two T20 Torx screws that hold the wiring harness. Remove those. Each coil has a little clip. You push down on the tab that's at the bottom of the harness connector. Some of them you'll hear a nice clicking sound and then pull the harness down off the coils. Use either the special Audi tool or you can just use a trusty screwdriver. Pry gently. Make sure you don't pry too much side to side. You want to pry straight up. Get the coil started and then twist it a little bit and pull it up and out.
The coil on the left is from 1A Auto. The original one is on the right, and you can see there's some cosmetic differences but the coils from 1A Auto are going to go in and replace and install just the same as your original.
Push the coil down in the same way as it came out, and obviously if you're going to replace all your coils you would just repeat this process for the other three, or five if you're doing it on a six cylinder. Then put the harness back up into place and push firmly, squeeze on the coil and the harness firmly to get it to lock into place. Then replace those two T20 screws. I just put it into place by hand first to make sure they get started correctly. Then tighten them up.
Thanks for tuning in. We hope this video helped you out. Next time you need parts for your car, please visit 1AAuto.com. Also check out our other helpful how-to and diagnosis videos.
