can some one tell me where or what this silver dot looks like on new ignition coils? i dont see the dot and they were supposivly changed! pics maybe?

 

the part numbers is how you should judge whether they are new or not.

 

can anyone tell me the diffrence in #'s

 

look at all the new coils, and you should see a grey dot on one of them. Make sure to check all of them. sometimes when they send out a pack of 6 theres a dot on only one of the coils

 

one of them has like a little white dash or mark on them from a marker? that is or is it like a sticker or something?

 

the 2k2/3 models dont have a dot, but Im assuming bringda40z has a 2k/1

 

The Dot is very obvious. Its diameter is a little smaller than your pinky. thats how obvious it is.

 

No dots on any of my new coils....

 

Then i'd take it or send it back and let them know. if you got new coils to fix the tsb issue.

 

The part #s are correct...I didnt get mine thought the TSB though

 

Only the 2k coils have the dots. I'm certain of this. If you do not have a 2000 maxima, or if they put 2k1 coils in your car (this is often done, as they did it in my car) then you wont see the dots. The part number is how you can determine if its a 2k or a 2k1 coil.

 

Just ordered them today for my 2k today anyone have the part # for the new ones handy so I can check it with what arrives.

 

anybody have the part # for updated ones for whether 00 or 01? thanks...

 

refer to the table below
(NO dots = NO dots)
(with dots = little gray round sticker on the head of the coil)
(front = 3 coils at the front of the car under engine cap)
(rear = 3 coils nearest to windshield behind the engine)

original - 2000 - front: 22448-2Y005 and NO dots
original - 2000 - rear: 22448-2Y000 and NO dots
updated - 2000 - front: 22448-2Y005 with dots
updated - 2000 - rear: 22448-2Y000 with dots
original - 2001 - front: 22448-2Y006 and NO dots
original - 2001 - rear: 22448-2Y001 and NO dots
no updated version of 2001 coils.

and there is no "copy-paste" errors in there. I double-checked it to make sure.

 

Just curious... my 03 coils have the grey dots. Are they the updated ones or not? Not sure if I have a newer car with old coils or what. Thanks.

 

so is it ok to use the 01 ones on 00 max?

 

Thanks.
