I beg to differ Posted by SWEDECAR [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: The cause of much doom and gloom...., Mike Lynch ![]() |
Volvo have used individual coil on plug in one model since 92 with rarely any failures and if one failed you replace that one only (I have replaced one coil through the years).
Since 99 all Volvos have individual coil on plug and I haven't heard of any failures yet.
On today's Saabs it is NOT the coils that fails, that was something of an early 9000 problem. Saab fixed that problem.
It is some electronic device inside the coil pack that "lets the smoke out".
I bet they could have used a better quality part but they probably saved a couple of cents by the choice they picked (we will never know until the "red tape" is removed).
