So today as suspected I got an EML on!

Started flashing when giving my car some beans ( around 5K) while driving through the peak district.

Car runs fine up until the high rpms, going to pick up a cheap coil from my local motor factors, as its the only thing open tomorrow, to keep me going until next week and pay day

but

Am i right in thinking since this one has gone the other 3 shouldn't be too far behind?

also whats the best option, oem coils or are euro car parts bosch ones alright?

Hi mate,

I understand that bosch are the original ones but i've heard that ECP parts can be a bit shady especially electrical compnents like MAFs and stuff

Ive seen 4 genuine OEM coils on awesome gti for £130 ; https://www.awesomegti.com/shop-by-...-ignition-coil-pack-set-1-8t-150-180-210-225/

4 at ECP are £115 with the discount code

which ones would you get?
