IG Coils- What do they cost!

I am sure that one or more of my IG Coils are faulty now that I have read the TSB. I believe that is why my car preformed not so well in the 1/4. Does anyone know what these parts cost? Are they sold individually or in pairs etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks....Also, If anyone may have a link or a suggestion to get them cheaper then from the dealer I'd appreciate it! Thanks, again!

I assume you mean ignition coil..
I had to pay Nissan $70 for the part + labor to get one replaced this week. I think Dave B sells them for $45 each

they are sold individually and i have seen them run from 50-65 bucks per coil. i would start by calling dave b and see what kind of price he has. his number is at the top in the faq. another contact to try is a guy that posts on here from jerry rome nissan. just search for the site and they offer an .org discount as well.

when my coil went bad... before the SES light went on... sometime.. the car will run sloggish.. and bad gas milage, and also sometime the car smells like rotten eggs.. I thought it was my CAT conv. for a while.. but then the SES light went on and took it to the dealer.. they hook it up to the machine... and found out

The only way I knew was when the SES light came on and i could barely hold onto the steering wheel cause the idle was soooo rough.. (The idle went back to normal after an hour though)
