Vince12v 20 Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 This evening I swapped my coilpack for a 2nd hand part I ordered, when I took off the old one I noticed it was date stamped 12/06, this pack isn't 10 yrs old yet, are they really that poor ???

EnthusiastOwned 7 Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 From what I've seen over the years a good coilpack will last around 10 years. I don't think it's the heat transfer from the engine which kills them really. I think it's the residual heat in the engine bay as it's always the front of the packs which crack.
