Ignition coil DELPHI or Duralast

I use Delphi on my N20 which use the same coil as N52. No problem so far.

I got my coils on eBay and haven’t had any issues in 3 years and still going strong. They are delphi brands so those are pretty good too.

Got mine from Rock Auto and have no issues. I grabbed Delphi brand per recommendations from forum posts.

I just replaced the plugs and coil packs on my 2016 granted it’s the 2.4l engine but I purchased the Delphi coil packs and they seem to work great and solved my misfire issue (80k miles on the odometer).

I ran this on my AP1 and it worked greats

Get the Delphi coils, no need to buy genuine BMW.

Duralast is a hit or miss kinda deal. It’s equivalent to oem. The good thing about it is you can swap them out for new ones if it ever fails. The bad thing is they either fail in a very short period of time or last for a very long time there’s no in between.

About 2 months ago I had a cylinder 4 misfire while on the interstate so I pulled over got it towed and replaced all the ignition coils(duralast) and spark plugs. It fixed the problem and I went on my merry way. Well now today I am currently on the side on the road waiting for a tow truck and once again got the p0304 code(cylinder 4 misfire). When I replaced the coils last time the coil in Cylinder 4 looked like it had melted. I haven’t been able to look at it now but what could be the cause for that? Do I have an underlying issue somewhere else or did cheap parts just bite me in the ass like they always do?

Used them on my 17’ Wrx premium. Worst decision i ever made. Motor started misfiring. Drove easy until i fount a replacement. Motor blew before i could swap them out 2 weeks later.

I have burnt through many duralast coils. Changing to standard or delphi today actually as the duralast keeps having misfires
