If the ignition coils are working fine, there's no real need to replace them. They'll generate misfire codes when they fail.
However, I would trust an NGK replacement just fine.
48082 is the correct coil for the 5V 4.2.

Genuine Audi coils at FCP Euro are US$40 ea. I thought they were Bosch, but I cannot find an Audi coil in the Bosch catalogue, so I have no other brand suggestions.

If you stick with NGK, same coil at a lower price here

2009 Volvo XC90 V8 R Design - has a louder more obnoxious exhaust than the S8, sounds great! Love this thing - Q7 was double the price, and certainly not double the car!
