During my 2years of owning the car I replaced some five coils (there is one coil per cylinder)
No one knows what caused the failure. The coils are originale by Renault

Hi levrob,

I would recommend going for after market parts, the Renault originals tends to give way fast and is more expensive.

Hi levrob,

My customer has managed to get an Italian make but it might not be available over your place.
