VW Jetta Ignition coil replacement. Tune up Pt 1. P0300, P0302, P0303 FIX
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 сер 2024
- Follow me as I do a tune-up procedure on the 2013 Volkswagen Jetta with a 2.0 engine. Volkswagen currently has 5 codes stored in the computer. Codes list as P0300, P0301, p0302, p0303, and P0304. Normally you would not replace the ignition coil as part of a tune-up procedure but in this case we are or the reason of lack of maintenance on this vehicle.

Saved me $1000 thank you so much!!! I believe in good karma and the way you’re saving people money good things will come
Volkswagen dealer tried to charge me 1000 for spark plugs wires and coil pack lol I got those pliers for the plugs and replaced everything for about 250 in an hour lol thanks for the video man easy peazyy
Wow!! You saved a ton! Great job getting it done!! 👍💪
Plug #1 top right, #2 top left, #3 bottom left, #4 bottom right of ignition coil. This is for a VW Jetta 2.0.
Aren't there individual coils that you can replace inside the coil pack?
I accidentally got them mixed up and this helped so thank you.
Assuming this is from right to left right ?
Thanks so much for this series. Removed P0300, 0303 as soon as I replaced the coil...car is running like new
Thanks alot car run better after I changing the ignition coil. Had the same codes and now all gone. Best vedio ever
Thank you for showing how to unlock that tip on the plug to the coilpack. Couldn't figure it out and didn't want to break it. I watched alot of videos and they all skipped that part except you, now I can move forward.. thanks again
I have a 2011 VW Jetta 2.0. The EPC and CEL came on while driving home from work. The EPC came on first then a flashing CEL until it just stayed solid. The car lost power, there was no acceleration when pressing the pedal, it vibrated very bad and had a rough idle at the lights when I got off the freeway. My uncle works at Midas and when he came to check it he instantly pointed out a faulty Cat. I took it to a muffler shop and got these codes P0420, P0300, P0301, P0304, P0351 and two other codes I can't remember. I changed the Cat and the guys at the shop showed me how clogged it was, they were surprised it even ran. That same day I changed out the coolant, plugs and wires. This was 03/30. Car was good up until two days ago, 04/14. Same thing, EPC, CEL, loss of power, no throttle, etc. I went back to the muffler shop to get the Cat checked and they said all was good but I did have the above codes excluding the P0420. I went to another shop and the man said he'd run a thorough diagnostics for $120. I agreed to take the car the next morning, today. I changed the ECTS when I got home, removed, reinstalled plugs/wires and called my uncle again. When he checked it he went straight to the harness that connects to the ignition coil. When he moved it the engine would idle roughly, when he'd move the harness again the engine would run normally. He said it could be a short somewhere in that harness. Well I just dropped off the car at the shop. I told the owner about a possible short in the electrical system and that moving some wires around would agitate the engine. I turned it on, popped the hood and he went straight to the harness that connects to the IC. He said he thinks it might be the IC going bad and that he'd start there before removing the cover/jacket from the harness. I bussed it home and checked YT for a DIY for replacing the IC. Depending on the diagnostics if its not a short I'll be changing the IC myself using your video as a guide. I have already changed the Cat, coolant, ECTS, plugs and wires in this vehicle. I do hope the fault isn't expensive and if it is the IC, I want to say thanks man. You've saved me several hundred bucks. I've spent a lot already.
You're not using cheap parts right? Did you double check the Gap in the plugs when you install them?
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS SERIES!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Glad to help brother. Good luck on your diy project.
Thank you so much! Very clear and detail instruction.
Easy fix, save me some money fixing my car
Haven’t done it yet, I definitely think you saved me some money. Thanks a lot man!
Glad to help.
Scotties Hobbies I did follow what you said, I got it fixed. Can you also make a video on how clean the engine bay for this car?
Car had random misfire-1+4.
Ordered coil pack. Meantime changed the plugs. Idled nicely. Installed new coil pack and now idle skips every 3 seconds like a misfire. WTH.
Will recheck harness to coil pack, I guess....
Awesome! Do the 1.8 l TSI ignition tune up !
Great video, to late for tranny fluid? Have error codes for all cylinders, after replacing plus, wires, an replacing. ignition coil. $119.99 AZ don't forget check them gaps 0.44-Triple check tranny fluid or better yet get from dealer.
Are the codes still there after your repairs?? I agree with you, always check the gap. When you purchase most spark plugs these days they say pre gapped and no need to check but what happens during shipping or packaging? You never know!! I always check if I can. On the transmission, I did not touch that at all on this vehicle. With the transmission fluid, I always recommend going to the manufacturer to get transmission fluid. Especially on import vehicles port vehicles. On my hondas and Toyota's we use nothing but OE fluid only.
oh so the VW just using one big ignition coil pack instead of the traditional long individual ignition coil sticks?
You are correct. This would be called a coil pack rather than a coil overplug.
If my CEL was flashing but turned off does that still mean my cat converter may still be affected? And what would I do to check/change it ?
Great video thank you
If i replaced the spark plugs and wires and it got worse did i do something wrong? Or is it that the coil pack is bad? Thanks in advance if you answer!
Hi Scott, Just found this video. I have a 2015 Jetta 2.0L regular, and I was curious if anything has changed since the 2013. I was told I may have to hook the car up to a computer or I could have an issue. My quote from the mechanic says that I need a new Coil pack, spark plug wires and spark plugs. Is this something I could do myself without a computer?
Thanks in advance!
So the older ignition coils for a mk6 2009-2015 is the same as the mk4 ignition coils if sooo that saves me soooo much money! I just bought one at autozone for $140.00 usd :( I’m going to return it if that’s the case
I have a 2012 vw Jetta 2.0 L sohc but I’m not sure which coil would be correct for my vehicle, J is the 8th position on my vin
I'm sorry if I sound dumb asking this, but what is the name of the tool you used to pull the plugs out of the coil pack? I want to say its forceps? I want to really try to replace my coil pack myself and save some money. (Lord knows I'm no mechanic, but you make it look simple) Thanks for the video! Great job!
Forceps.. I love it. Those are actually spark plu pliers, you can get them here: amzn.to/2Ry9C5E or ebay.to/2N3Lvgs If you get the style like I am using, make sure to grab the spark plug wire were the metal clip in the wire connects to the spark plug. roughly a inch up from bottom of wire. IF you grab the bottom you can slide the grommet up the wire if its stuck on the spark plug good. always try to pull in the direction the spark plug is facing, especially if you are thinking of keeping the wires. It is a easy job with the right tools. It can get time consuming. I'd say with my experience this can be a 45 miniute job. It should take a novice no more than a couple hours with small breaks.
Good luck on your diy maintenance.
Thanks.Easy!
Glad to help. Good luck on your diy fixes. 👍💪
Merci beaucoup
Straight up!!
Hi did it stop cause am getting dat wit my vw 2014 coil is new plugs is new but I didn’t do d wires but still misfired
Before replacing the ignition system which included spark plugs, wires, and coil this car did have a misfire. After replacing all the parts with OEM parts the problem went away and has been away since those repairs were done. I have heard horror stories of people using less expensive parts and having the same problem persist after the repairs were done too. Did you use OEM quality?
Ok tanks i did d wires jus now n it seems to b ok power is bck like wen i move off it burn tires dats how i know its ok now I couldn’t do dat few weeks ago n ur video help me out i did my self keep up d gud work 👍🏾
Thanks.
I have only P0303 for cylinder codes(but also P0011, P0016 and C0300). Would your diagnosis be different in that case?
Is there any "learning" function that the car needs to accept the new coil pack, requiring special software? Or is this just a plug-and-play part?
It is a plug and play part. No learning needed.
Our indian mechanic are best charges are very reasonable.
That is great news. Thanks. 👍💪
Aren't there individual coils inside the coil pack that you can replace?
Great question! But not one this one. Its a single coil pack for all 4 cylinders.
Good luck on your diy projects and keep us posted on your progress.
@@ScottiesHobbies Good to know then I must be needing new spark plugs instead for mine. Most cars have individual coils you can replace, good thing i found your video before ordering parts. I have the same exact model as you 2013 vw jetta 2.0 l4 1984cc engine. Thanks for the reply, info and video.
Hi Scott, how did you decide to change coil, plugs, and cables? Did you just continue using process of elimination until the error went away? I currently have a P302 and am hoping a plug will do it. If not I will probably continue as you did as it will still be cheaper than a garage.
If I was chasing that code and trying to isolate the problem I would do this: swap the number 2 coil with another coil from another calendar. If the miss fire moves calendars then you know the coil is bad. If the issue continues on the original calendar, you can check the wires. See of the ohms are the same on all wires, your looking for a abnormality. If the wires are good, you better hope its the spark plug. If its not the plugs at this point, I'd do a compression check to see if the calendar has bad compression.
Hopefully that will help you out. If you want you can give me a call around 5 pm pacific time Monday thru Friday and I can explain it to you and answer questions. I'll post the convo on a podcast to help others. Scott @ 925 418-5096
Such a great point, switching working wires to troubleshoot. It turns out when I pulled the plug it was visibly degraded with a 55 gap 😵 Changed it and hesitation is gone! Thanks so much for this video it was amazing. I appreciate you entertaining a phone call thanks so much. Keep at it man you’re living my dream!
I currently have the P0302 issue, how did you resolve it ?
Does the ignition coil last the lifetime of the car as long as the spark plugs and wires are replaced regularly?
Ignition coils go bad pretty often. They can last the life of the car but they can go bad. When they decide to go bad they can give some pretty misleading symptoms.
How much should a job like this cost ? Including all cost
For plugs, wires, coil, and labor... probably around $450 l
Hi Scottie. I'm having same problem with my 2012 jetta. My question is I changed spark plugs cabin and air filter about a year ago. Do I still need to change spark plugs with ignition coil and wires or not? Thank you
The coil only needs to be replaced when it goes bad. Wires and plugs i recommend every 80k or so. Cabin air filter every 4 to 6 months. Engine air filter every 30 to 45 k.
@@ScottiesHobbies thank you so much..
Hi Scotti
Thanks for the video. I have a question. I drive a 2015 jetta same 2.0 na. It wont start sometimes but when it happens its starts up after 10min. It shuts off on me while driving but starts up after 10min or so. This phenomenon happens 4-5 times a week. No engine codes no, no CEL, took it to the dealership they have no clue.. Please advice thanks
AVIN S MURIATH I am having the same issue! 😩
@@asiajlovely2535 Same. I replaced the ignition coil and spark plug. The spark plugs made the code go away. But the car still has a tough start. I have to turn the car off since the engine struggles. When I turn it on the second time it's fine.
I am starting to think it is the ignition cables because when my car doesn’t start, I pop the hood wiggle the wires near the ignition coil and it starts right up like nothing happened.
how much would a mechanic charge for what the total job you did?
In my area, you could probably find a spark plugs and wires would probably run $200 - $250 at a private repair shop.
Hey Scott, does it matter where you get the coil from? I recently got mine from autozone but i instantly got a misfire on the 4th cylinder and then when I put old one back the misfire was gone
It should not matter where you get your coil from period from period I usually make sure I get a lifetime warranty one especially if I am buying from a local supplier.. You do have a chance of buying a defective part also.. I've noticed in recent years the likelihood of receiving a defective part has greatly increased.
@@ScottiesHobbies ok thanks ill try another store then
Great! What was the labor time involved? Thanks!
If I was focused on just doing the job it would have been way faster. Let's say the spark plugs wires and coil probably could have all been replaced in less than an hour if I was focusing on just getting that done.
Quick question did u this connected the battery to replace the coil
It is always recommended to disconnected to perform any work. Did I personally? No.
Your link drives me to ebay, are those parts acceptable?
You have to make sure what you are buying. You usually have the option to buy something cheap that'll get you by. Or you can buy a better quality name brand that will last longer.
Do you need a tool to take off the wires? Could one simply just use gloves hands. Newb but more mechanically inclined than the average bear.
You could use hands. But you take a greater risk of damaging them. Inside the wire boot is the actual connector to the spark plug. With the spark plug pliers you can grip the boot where the connection is to hopefully get a better grip on the connection rather than just pulling on the boot.
What size tools do you need for mk6 Jetta? I have similar engine layout to the one in video.
