Review on πŸ”₯ Enhance Performance with Standard Motor Products UF-529 Ignition Coil by Phil Casey

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Ignition Parts Driver Warning

Everything. I would like to share my experience with Standard Motor Products ignition coils for my Audi. Bought 8 rolls in September 2014 because they were cheap. In October, cylinder 1 in bank one began to fail. I took the spool off and replaced it with the original dealer spool which I kept. The car drove well. In November, cylinder 3 began to fail. Replace it back with the original coil. The car drove well. Last week, cylinder 2 on the second row started to misfire while driving on the freeway at 60 km/h. The car is in emergency mode. Not a fun experience. Then I realized the seriousness of what I was doing, I may have risked my life and the lives of others by purchasing these coils. But nothing happened to me or my car. So far 3 out of 8 coils have failed. I decided to replace all of the ignition coils with new genuine dealer parts at a cost of $250. Revain coils are $120. The total cost of all 16 ignition coils is $370. Lesson learned.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
