Product Information

A complete set of 8 direct ignition coils

Your BMW's direct ignition coils create and transfer power to the spark plug. With high mileage it is not uncommon for direct ignition coils to begin to fail. Usually, failed ignition coils will cause cylinder misfire codes. A failed ignition coil will cause a dead cylinder. While these coils can be replaced individually we believe that it is worthwhile to replace all of the ignition coils at once to ensure a long service life and proper performance from your BMW's ignition system.

Direct Ignition Coil Kit

An ignition coil is a vital car component that produces high-voltage electricity to generate a spark at the spark plug, igniting the air-fuel mixture within the engine cylinder. When an ignition coil fails, it can cause engine misfires, rough idling, reduced power, an illuminated check engine light, difficulty starting the engine, and sometimes backfiring. These issues arise from weak or inconsistent sparks produced by the malfunctioning coil.

Direct Ignition Coil Kit Failure Symptoms
  • Engine misfires: The most prominent sign, causing the engine to jerk or shudder, especially when accelerating, due to inconsistent combustion in one or more cylinders
  • Rough idling: The engine vibrates or shakes noticeably when idling due to uneven firing of cylinders
  • Decreased engine power: The car may feel sluggish or lack acceleration due to incomplete combustion

E39 540 Wagon
Aside from perfect fit, I was really impressed with my engines idle setting down - smooth as butter. What really impressed me was the improved fuel economy. I had no idea my wagon with 160K was not running optimally.

These do not fit the e39 M5. The square shape (as opposed to the round of the orignal) prevents the coil from bolting down due to the post for the cover.
