07K905715F Ignition Coil 07K905715D – Pencil Ignition Coil for Volkswagen and Audi
07K905715F Ignition Coil (07K905715D) for Volkswagen and Audi
This 07K905715F ignition coil is a pencil-type coil that sits directly on top of the spark plug, one coil for each cylinder. The supplier sells it under the numbers 07K905715F and 07K905715D and lists it for Volkswagen and Audi petrol engines. Easy Life Markets offers it as a single coil, so you can replace only the one that has failed or order as many as your engine has cylinders.
Coil-on-plug ignition did away with the distributor and the long high-voltage leads. Each coil gets a low-voltage signal from the engine computer, builds the spark voltage inside its own body and delivers it straight down the tube to the plug underneath. That makes for a strong, well-timed spark, but it also means every coil lives in the heat of the cylinder head. Years of heat cycles and vibration eventually break down the insulation, and the coil starts to misfire. Our short guide below covers how to confirm this is the right part and how to fit it. For background reading, see the ignition coil article.

Will It Fit Your Car?
The supplier's fitment information is brief: Volkswagen and Audi, with the note "4 cylinder". It does not name models, years or engine codes. For a part like this, that is not enough to buy on, so please match the part number instead:
- Pull one coil and read it. The number is printed on the head of the coil. If yours reads 07K905715F or 07K905715D, this is the listed replacement.
- Check a parts catalogue with your VIN. Volkswagen and Audi changed coil numbers several times across engine families, and a catalogue will tell you which number your engine takes and which ones it supersedes.
- Count your cylinders. The supplier writes "4 cylinder", but a part number is not tied to a cylinder count, so do not rely on that note alone. Whatever your engine, you need one coil per cylinder, so order the quantity to match.
- Compare the photos. Look at the plug shape on the head and the length of the tube against the coil in your hand.
If you cannot find the number, contact us with your VIN and a photo of the old coil and we will help you compare.
How to Tell a Coil Is Failing
- The engine stumbles or shakes at idle and smooths out, or gets worse, as it warms up
- A flashing or steady engine warning light with a misfire code for one cylinder
- Loss of power under load, such as climbing a hill or overtaking
- The misfire follows the coil when you swap it to a different cylinder
- Cracks, burn marks or oil on the coil tube or rubber boot
That swap test is the quickest diagnosis there is. Move the suspect coil to another cylinder, clear the code and drive. If the misfire code moves with it, the coil is the problem. If it stays put, look at the plug, the injector or the wiring instead.
Fitting the Coil
- Let the engine cool and switch the ignition off. Disconnecting the battery negative terminal is a sensible precaution.
- Remove any engine cover, then release the locking tab on the coil's plug and pull the plug off gently.
- Pull the coil straight up. A stuck coil can be eased out with a coil puller rather than twisted with pliers, which can tear the tube.
- Look down the plug well. Oil or water in there needs sorting out first, or the new coil will not last.
- Press the new coil down until it seats on the plug, reconnect the plug and listen for the tab to click.
This is a straightforward job on most engines, but ignition parts carry high voltage. If you are unsure, have a qualified mechanic fit it.
One Coil or the Full Set?
Coils of the same age tend to wear at a similar rate. If one has failed at high mileage, the others have seen the same heat and the same number of sparks. Many owners replace the single failed coil and keep the car running; others replace the whole set to avoid going back in a few months later. Both approaches are reasonable. What we would always do is check the spark plugs at the same time, because a worn plug with a wide gap forces the coil to produce more voltage and shortens its life.
Who Should Buy This Coil
Volkswagen and Audi owners and independent workshops who have confirmed that the engine takes 07K905715F or 07K905715D. It is also a handy spare for anyone who has already had one coil fail and wants a replacement on the shelf.
Common Questions
Is this a genuine Volkswagen or Audi part? No. It is an unbranded aftermarket coil. The numbers 07K905715F and 07K905715D are reference numbers used to match it to the part it replaces.
How many coils come in one order? One. Add the quantity you need to the cart.
Does the supplier say which models it suits? Only "Volkswagen Audi". That is why we ask you to match the part number or check by VIN.
