Well done Chris

just over 2 hours isn't bad going considering the bits of trim you have to remove (and put back) to get to the coils & plugs

I hope you haven't been neglecting your mud flaps though

Cheers Matt, yea opened the bonnet scratched my head a bit and realised that. Bit of a PITA but all went ok, didn't even break any clips on the carrier across the engine

Noticeable difference as well so pretty happy with that. Hate driveway mechanics though

Oh and yes mudflaps are all good, back to blacked them this evening lol

Can you post up the Bosch part numbers?

_Nathan_ · 30-06-2013, 11:42 PM

I've got a set of 6 that have hardly been used, if I had to guess I'd say less than 12 hours use, £40 posted.

Gonna switch to VW Coils :D

Had the car out for a bit of a run today, huge difference. Car picks up so much more cleanly and can hold onto gears longer before downshifting.

I used to change these all the time on my old E36's and it looks the the S54 is no different.

Job done chris got the parts today from euro car parts excellent value. Straight forward to fit them wonder how much the dealer would charge for this to be done ? Instant difference in engine much smoother.
