Title: Coil pack - new or used?
Post by: Mr Hagon on 10 April 2011, 23:41:56

I think the cause of the P0300 for cyls 1-3-5 is down to a coil pack on the way out.

As I'm not sure are second hand coil packs worth a punt, or is it safer to opt for a new one?

£75 new

£50 S/H

No brainer when mine started to fail, £25 more for new.

Was an Ebay seller who is a motorfactors.

Wouldn't pay more than £20 for S/H
