Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Okay so I had some spring servicing done...Had to replace 4 cracked ignition coils. Any idea if this is 'normal'? 02 C2 with 55k K....

POST 2Original post

Depends on the climate and the person changing the spark plugs last. Too much torque = cracked coils for sure.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Interesting. I don't think the plugs have been changed yet but that WAS on the list for this service.... It's starting to look like I should just take off the tin foil hat and be happy that I have good coils.......... Thanks Loren!

POST 4Original post

I'm also somewhat surprised your mechanic didnt change out the other 2 coils while he was at it. At least that's what my mechanic recommended last month.

POST 5Original post

I replaced all six around 50k miles (4 cracked), but all six were fine at 100k miles.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yep, the other two are okay (on an interesting side note, they're roughly twice the price from the dealer as you can get them from a supplier) which I thought was odd too but if they're good, they're good. Good to hear (again) that this isn't unheard of. Thanks guys.
