Detailed Description

Beru ZSE044 is an ignition coil engineered for direct-fit replacement on vehicles that use the specified OE numbers, including Porsche Cayenne, Audi A3 Quattro, Audi TT Quattro, Audi Q7, Volkswagen Eos, Volkswagen Passat, Volkswagen R32, and Volkswagen Touareg. This part number, ZSE044, cross-references OE applications such as 022905715B and 95860210100 for the same vehicle coverage.

Built as a pencil-style coil for engine-head installation, the ZSE044 supports electronic ignition performance where a compact, coil-on-plug layout is required. Beru’s OE manufacturing background helps ensure the coil follows the fitment and electrical requirements used by original vehicle systems.

What This Ignition Coil Helps Address

• Engine misfire caused by a weak or failing coil
• Hard starting related to inconsistent spark output
• Rough idle from ignition breakdown under load
• Loss of acceleration response tied to coil degradation
• Check engine light conditions associated with ignition faults

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the OE number on the original coil before ordering, since fitment is tied to specific factory part references. The Beru ZSE044 mounts on the engine head and uses a 4-pin female connector, so connector style and terminal layout should be matched before installation. For best results, inspect the spark plug condition and related ignition components during replacement.
