Fake Bosch coil pack sold at Goldwagen.

If you go to Goldwagen. Don't buy this things here,they are very fake. I bought 4 last year stranded & today one just got stuck inside.

An oil leak can also cause rubber to deteriorate and perish.

I do not think that those coils are fake as Goldwagen consolidate their shipments from reputable suppliers.
They equally sell goods to a price point so no need for them to buy Chinese and sell as European.

I respectfully propose that you are wrong.

They dont look fake. Coils do sometimes break. Some dielectric grease will help with install and removal.

Yeah the coils have an error iD10T error... You should return them for a 100% refund.

Not really hate. I just lost 2 coils today. I bought these in September last year. Only thing I could think of is their quality.

OP which bmw model you have? Something causing the coils to prematurely fail? How are the plugs looking?

I bought six Bosch coils from a Bosch outlet for a 325ci e46 after one had melted around 120k kms. So the new ones lasted that long. Earlier this year one of those new ones caused a misfire at 160k kms so we replaced it. Some cars can go through coils like underware i guess. Another E46 i have ran on original Bremi coils to 200 000kms (19 years )and i replaced them while they were still working. I'm not expecting the Bosch replacements to last that long.

So tbh I don't think those Goldwagon Bosch coils are fake. I suspect an ageing engine may produce anomalies that could need coil replacement more frequently...just my 5pence:dunnoanymore:
