I recently had a faulty intake manifold... taken care by warranty
Engine light came on and off for 3 or 4 days really didnt notice any difference in performance

Cylinder three floating coil here. It would rise up about a quarter inch every so often and I would just push it back down. Nothing noticeable otherwise until checking plugs the other day.
In that same cylinder three I had a good amount of oil buildup on the cylinder three plug after removing the coil. No sign of it being loose or stripped some I'm kinda unsure as to why the hell there is oil buildup otherwise if anyone else knows?
I changed all of them and torqued down to 18 ft lbs. Everything is clean and running strong and has been since day one otherwise. Only have 11k on the motor. Its just bothering me about that damn coil. Though.

you'd think there would be a parts revision by now

Thanks but I have been. I've had the manual and I know about that post. I've been digging and found this thread. I send a pm to bestgti but I just thought I'd through it out there just to see if anyone else had this happen. Its probably nothing because there is no cause for concern otherwise besides the oil which has been dealt with. All that I can do now is just monitor it. If it keeps happening the dealer is going to replace a coil because its been doing it for at least a year now. Shit design. Would be nice if they were held down by brackets like they are when modded to fit the 1.8t's

Check Engine Light
add me to the list. Check Engine Light came on yesterday and dropped by the dealer immediately.
The dealer replaced the Intake Manifold and seals. The part was faulty.
They told me this is a VW problem and not just my vehicle. My vehicle was under warranty so I did not learn about any extended warranty info.

My car was dropped off at Mississauga Audi yesterday (Audi A3 FWD TSI) and the manifold crapped out, lucky for me they will clean my valves too
and interms of mods well ... the car is heavily modded !
APR STAGE II tune, Carbonio Stage I & II, 3" RCS TB, BSH pipe, APR FMIC ... there good to me the dealer.

Oil buildup between the plug and the coil? That's not good at all...
