Porsche 997 ignition coils cracking
Discussion
I collected my car back from the garage and they mentioned one of the ignition coils were cracked. When he showed me the black plastic casing had split slightly.
He mentioned the car will eventually misfire but decision to replace them was down to me.
I wasn't sure whether I could keep driving for now and replace them in a couple of months or whether they should be done ASAP.
thoughts? he mentioned new updated coil packs were released which were tougher than the originals.

Hi Alex, the £40/ coils are genuine dealer ones, you also have to fit 3mm spacers behind the protective shield, as the new ones are made by Borg Warner, and will rub on it, due to size.
There are Beru ones from Eurocarparts, also of same dimensions that are £27.00 each and them come with the new longer bolts in the box, Porsche sell bolts separate.
