Best place to purchase ignition coils?

MIAblu1 · 04-14-2014, 06:14 PM

At the 57+k mile mark and about to start doing maintenance including swapping the coils... Can anyone tell me where they might have found the best priced replacements?

ECS tuning seems to have great pricing for this kind of thing. I most recently bought a full set of Bosch coils from them. Good pricing and fast shipping.

Am I going out on a limb here saying you're a tad bias? Lol
What pricing do you guys offer on a set of 6 coils?

IMO, at your mileage you should not be switching out the ignition coils unless they are bad.

For maintenance regarding your mileage I would focus more on Walnut blasting, diff flush, coolant flush, transmission flush, plugs, etc.

True, I did have two cylinders misfiring after swapping plugs last I did a log to the car though... I guess I can just swap those coils.

Yup... Read around about issues using other plugs so stuck to the Bosch OEM ones
