Tecnincal problem with VAG Group 2.0-litre TSI

We on the SEATCupra.net website are finding a lot of "coil pack failures", but the fault appears secondary to oil leakage into the packs. This is on the new 2.0 TSI engines.

Do you have any supportive data? SEAT UK /garages are hiding behind the usual "computer says no" syndrome.

First I've heard of this, but I will add it to my own car-by-car breakdown entry. If it's happening on SEATs it must be happening on Skodas, Volkswagens and Audis as well.
