First of all, even though the Issue says Coil Pack, that does not necessarily mean the Coil Pack is Bad. It could be a Loose Connection, it could be a Bad Wire, it can also mean a Bad Spark Plug or fouled Injector but to answer your question...
The Coil Pack is located under the Plastic on top of your Engine and Directly connects to the Spark Plug. If I was you I would Swap the #1 and #3 Coil Packs and see if the Fault Code follows the Coil Pack. If it does then replace the Coil Pack. If it stays with the Cylinder, I would be checking the Connectors, Wires, Injector and Spark Plug.
STANDING FRONT OF VECHICLE CYLINDERS FACING YOU ARE 4 5 6 AND BACK CYLINDERS IS 1 2 3 NOW ON PIECE PAPER LOOKING AT IGNITION COIL PACK FACING YOU WRITE BACK NUMBERS 123 AND UNDER THAT NUMBER 1 2 3 WRITE FRONT NUMBERS 5 6 4 THATS YOUR COIL PACK PLUG WIRES LOCATION. LIKE I SAY 5 6 4 IS PLUGS WIRES LOCATION FACING YOU AND BACK NUMBERS 1 2 3 PLUG WIRES LOCATION ON COIL PACK. FIRING ORDER IS 1 4 2 5 3 6
Each coil pack is located above the spark plug, There are no wires on newer audi's but there are individual coil packs for each cylinder. #3 cylinder coil pack is located right above #3 cylinder. Hope that helps!
The coil pack is located on the right side of the engine (look from the front) under the plastic manifold covers. Just follow the pretty spark plug wires to the end and they attach to the coil pack.
Rate it....
Follow the spark plug wires away from the spark plugs. The coil packs are on top of the ignition module. The coil packs have two terminals each and will have two spark plug wires attached to each coil pack. There are 3 coil packs and I would recommend replacing all three at once. They are bolted down to the ignition module bracket with a total of 6 small screws. Two per coil pack. Remove the small screws and the electrical connectors and the plug wires. Dont forget to mark the wires so you can replace them as you found them. Installation is just the opposite of removal.
