Hi all. Can someone tell me the difference in quality of coil packs? On carpartsforless there is a MG 1.8t coil pack for £17 each. Is there any point me buying this? i need to fix my jerky car!

You can pay over twice that for a quality part..

Two Coil Packs are fitted,usually the best way to eliminate the problem is to swap a known good one about until the problem is resolved.

ive tried to do that but nobody seems to live near me willing to swap em. So i was gonna buy 2 new ones but thought £17 sounded cheap. I dont mind spending the £34 but will they be any good you reckon?

Well you get what you pay for. Perhaps the cheaper part would be good enough to eliminate the problem..
