Title: Best Place to Buy 2 4 6 Coil Pack for 3.2?
Post by: YZ250 on 09 March 2015, 14:38:57
I need a new 246 bank coil pack for my 3.2 and was wondering where is the most reasonable place to buy it from?
I have searched but found nothing conclusive.  :-\

Trade club price is £97.75 + vat (£117.30 inclusive) and they can get me one delivered to my not so local Vauxhall Dealer. Is this a sensible price or does anyone know of a more reasonable source?

Without TC they wanted £154 + vat so it's an improvement on that.  :o :o

Cheers for any input.  :y

Shop around quoting best price so far. Most factors have genuine Bosch. :)

I'd try to keep to Bosch if possible, some of the other makes, going by reports from other members, do not last particularly well.

That said, I'd imagine a Bosch part won't see change from £80.

On a quick inspection it didn't look too bad but, when removed, I could see that it's in very poor condition, with corrosion and cracks. Scuttle now sealed properly.

I'll phone around for a Bosch one and if there's not much in the price I'll order it from Trade Club.  :y

Cheers for the input guys.  :y

Cheers for the PM Phil.  :y

As said in my reply, coincidentally that's my local Trade Club dealer and he never mentioned that when I phoned earlier.  :-\

Thanks for the input guys, all sorted now.  :y

Massive thanks to PhilRich, for pointing me in the direction of a brand new, genuine coil pack from a Vauxhall main dealer for the princely sum of £39.01.  :o :o

The power of OOF, very much appreciated guys.  :y
