Title: How do you tell if the coil pack is faulty and how much does a new one cost?
Post by: Homer on October 17, 2013, 07:33:25 pm

I am no mechanic so I mean in terms of how would a layman be able to tell, I.e. How would the car behave? And how much does a new one cost? Thanks

When my went the car died and would no longer start, probably the most extreme case

Price wise, i replaced mine recently and they were £32.33 each from the dealer

One of mine went, would stutter when on full chat, I bought a new one and swapped it with one (of 4) luckily at the second go found the faulty one and all was sorted
