#1: Ignition Coil Author: glowa, Location: LiverpoolPosted: Fri Feb 01, 2013 8:46 am ---- Hello
I have just bought a new ignition coil (advised by mechanic) from eurocarparts with a gray connector but it didnt fix my problem. My old coil pack had a black connector tho. What is the difference? should I get the black one?
ps. I have Peugeoot 206 1999 1.1 and my problem with it is that the whole car shakes, it struggels up the hills etc. When i drove to the mechanic he said straight away that its running on 3 cylinders and to change the coil pack but i think bought the wrong one (gray instead of black) because it still does it unless there is no difference then its not coils pack falt...

An example is enter your reg and click on brakes it will give you the parts for both discs and drums on the rear. When you look at switches for a comm unit, it gives you the options of all the units and also throws up the preplex stalks even though it's obvious that the car is plexed.
You cannot trust generic part lists, only way to get the proper part number is to log onto servicebox.
Edit. I've just looked and it even gives you the black and grey connection options for the coilpack, so not very vehicle specific.

Yes it worked for you but doing this without fault finding and proving it is an injector is an expensive mistake every time it is a coil pack, crank sensor, cam sensor, MAP, stepper motor, air leak or other fault.
Indeed I suspect a single injector could have fixed your problem at less than a quarter of the cost you paid.
I don't mean to be rude, please don't take it that way, but you need to guide people through diagnoses and proving what is defective not just, "change all this it worked for me."
