Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Failed ignition coil pack on 2002 audi a4. 3.0 engine leaving the car inoperable. from what i understand, this is a worldwide major failure mode with vw/audi only replacing the failed coil pack, the other coil packs will fail in time. some owners have had up to 5 coil packs fail at various times leaving them and their families stranded in undesirable conditions and places. many people don't carry cell phones enhancing the problems. a total recall is mandatory in this case, it's not going to get better! ts
