Yeah, I figured someone would chime in saying they've used these without issues. Between a couple positive mentions I've seen on here and FCP's lifetime warranty, I saw no reason to pay extra for the genuine BMW coils. I have to assume most people who buy these don't have issues otherwise FCP would stop selling them altogether. When I called them, they told me they had never heard of this happening before.

Like I said, it could be a bad batch or STI started repackaging a different brand coil (not Eldor) without notifying their vendors. Who knows...I'm just here to share my experience but YMMV, buy at your own risk.
