Cracked coil pack. Basically, this part is defective and known by Volkswagen to fail. They are using it to make a little guaranteed extra money. Furthermore, it is not covered under the powertrain warranty. The following website has information on a cheaper fix: http://chris.agenteight.com/vr6/coilpack.html.
