I’m experiencing some issues with my car lately, and I’m starting to think it might be related to the coil pack. I’d love to get some input from anyone who’s dealt with this before. Here are some details:
Symptoms I’ve Noticed:
Engine Misfires: It feels like the engine is hiccuping intermittently, especially at idle.
Reduced Performance: The car seems sluggish, especially when trying to accelerate.
Difficult Starting: Sometimes it takes longer to start than usual, and I’m not sure if it’s the battery or something else.
Warning Lights: The check engine light is on, which has me worried.
Questions:
Are these typical symptoms for a bad coil pack?
How can I confirm if this is the issue?
What are my options for replacement or repair?
Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
When a coil pack is failing, you might notice issues like misfires, rough idling, or a drop in fuel efficiency. It’s best to diagnose it early to avoid further damage.
Typically, primary resistance should be between 0.5 to 2 ohms, and secondary resistance can be between 6,000 to 15,000 ohms depending on the vehicle. Always check your specs!
