Ignition Coil Stuck

[androidapple23]

I have an 08 GTI SE 130 and I went to change the spark plugs. Two of the three coils pulled out with little problem but the middle coil stick will not come out. I was finally able to get it to turn back and forth but I can not get it to pull up. I am afraid if I pull any harder it will break and cause me more problems. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Coil Stuck

I am having the same issue. I got the coil out for cylinders 1 and 2. 2 was a little stuck but I was able to get it out. I can not get the third out to save my life. I am getting great leverage and a lot of pressure but it will not budge. It will spin around but it will not come out. Any tips please?? I know I will need a new coil so I am not worried about damaging it at this point I just need it out to change the plugs.

Thanks
