Hi,
A couple of months ago, I had my first ignition coil go at 70k miles. Should have bought 2 because now I need another one... Can I expect the rest to go in quick succession?
I needed the last one fast so bought it from the stealer for £58 - part no. B12.13.8.616.153
I'm looking for something cheaper this time and there are plenty on eBay for about twenty quid. Most seem to be Bosch but with a different part number. Is there just one coil for all models? Is Bosch the best one to go for?
Thanks

I've thought about having a couple in stock but ECP shows a couple of versions... interested too.

I've just ordered 6 Delphi coils for my e86 from GSF (personally I think ECP aren't very good and won't be using them again!) at £56 each but with their usual 60% discount so come in at around £22 each!
