I recently purchased an “OEM ignition service kit” from turner for $850 which come to find out includes aftermarket standard motor parts ignition coils. They look like cheap parts store ignition coils and are being returned.

I ended up purchasing 5 good used ignition coils from someone locally today for $100. I am going to put four of them in the rear of the engine and keep my 204k mile ignition coils as spares in the trunk.

I have heard reports of the original ignition coils lasting 200-240k miles without issues. All of my ignition coils are original and the car runs great. Anyone pushing 200k I would recommend just purchasing a used set of ignition coils from a sub 100k car.
