Each order is for one single coil - so remember to select the number of coils that your car needs above.
It's important to be sure you have the right Mantis ignition coil.
The Mantis MTP-1001 is compatible with all the following cars fitted with the VAG 1.0 / 1.2 / 1.4 TSI (EA111 & EA211) engines.
Plus, it's always a good idea to verify your existing coil OE number too (listed below).
> All of the above car types fitted with VAG 1.0 / 1.2 / 1.4 TSI (EA111 & EA211) engine are compatible with Mantis MTP-1001.
The Mantis MTP-1001 difference
A stronger neodymium core delivers 12% more spark energy than standard OE coils - for cleaner combustion and more reliable firing under load.
More complete combustion extracts more energy from every injection event.
Gains that are felt across the entire RPM range, not just peak power.
Want to be absolutely sure that the Mantis MTP-1001 will fit your car?
Use these OE part numbers below to verify against the factory reference stamped on your existing coil:
Built around an increased-strength neodymium permanent magnet core and high-output copper primary winding, the Mantis MTP-1001 delivers 12% more spark energy than a standard OE replacement coil in the VAG 1.0 / 1.2 / 1.4 TSI (EA111 & EA211) engine - ensuring a hotter, longer spark for more complete combustion on every cycle, from cold start to full boost.

What are Mantis ignition coils?
Mantis ignition coils are high-output replacement coils engineered for performance petrol engines. They deliver stronger, more consistent spark energy to support cleaner combustion, smoother running and reliable firing under load.

Will Mantis coils fit my car?
Mantis coils are designed as direct OE replacements for specific vehicles and engines.
Not sure: use the vehicle search or registration lookup to find the correct coils for your car by UK reg, make/model/year lookup, or cross reference to your OE coil part numbers.
Are Mantis coils suitable for tuned engines?
Yes, absolutely. Tuned, remapped, turbocharged and supercharged engines place greater demand on the ignition system. Mantis coils are designed to help maintain strong, reliable spark delivery under higher engine load.
Are Mantis coils suitable for standard engines?
Yes, definitely. Whether your standard engine is high-performance, or simply a regular daily-driver, the Mantis strong, stable spark will benefit efficiency, power and smoothness.
Why do my original ignition coils fail?
Ignition coils operate in one of the most demanding environments found anywhere on a modern car.
They are exposed to heat, vibration and repeated electrical loading, often while mounted directly onto the engine. Every time a spark plug fires, the ignition coil must convert the car’s low battery voltage into the much higher voltage needed to create a spark inside the combustion chamber.
Over time, this repeated stress will inevitably cause the coil’s internal insulation, windings, electrical connections or outer casing to deteriorate.

Can Mantis coils help fix misfires?
They can help if the misfire is caused by weak or failing ignition coils. However, misfires can also be caused by spark plugs, injectors, wiring or other engine issues, so proper diagnosis is recommended.
When should I change my original coils?
There's no single answer to this, but we always recommend that by around 60k miles / 100k kms, your original coils will be deteriorating. You may already be noticing poor running, you may have a fault code - or often, over the years, you may not have noticed the gradual rougher running or lower power that results from weak ignition coils.

Do I need to change anything else?
No coding, wiring changes or ECU calibration are required. For best results, we recommend fitting Mantis coils with fresh, correctly specified spark plugs.
Are Mantis coils covered by warranty?
Yes. Mantis ignition coils are covered by a 2-year warranty for added peace of mind.
