#1: Ignition coils compatibility for a Gti 180 Author: kernel, Location: EarthPosted: Thu Nov 22, 2012 12:46 pm ---- Hi everybody
I think my 4 months-old ignition coils are failing (had to buy a new ones)
I need to check them but it's hard to find another Gti 180.
I would like to know if I can use coils from any 2.0 Peugeot/Citroen with the 6-pin connection. Or maybe Gti 180 uses specific ignition coils?
The conector should be like this
and the coils look like this
Thanks for any info

#3: Re: Ignition coils compatibility for a Gti 180 Author: kernel, Location: EarthPosted: Thu Nov 22, 2012 1:21 pm ---- goes on three cylinders when warms
I get P0300 code, and spark plugs are OK (checked)
any other reason to be on 3 cyl? Last edited by kernel on Thu Nov 22, 2012 1:48 pm; edited 1 time in total

#5: Re: Ignition coils compatibility for a Gti 180 Author: kernel, Location: EarthPosted: Thu Nov 22, 2012 1:36 pm ---- Might be, but P0300 seems a ignition failure, and the mechanic thinks it's not injectors thing...
I may open another topic regarding the problem, but at the moment I would like to check if it's ignition coils, so any info regarding the compatibility issue would be great.

That code is a very generic code, I've had it several times before now, it's been coil pack and injectors.
As for using another coil, im 99.9% certain the 180 run's a different pack to the 138.

the problems appears after 2 minutes of warming up.
It doesn't appear with the car on Idle.
