Coils for $58 W/ Lifetime warranty
I bought a coil today to replace a bad one and it was only 58 dollars w/ tax from o'reilly auto parts and it comes with a lifetime warranty 
Do the oem coils come with any warranty? Do other autopart stores offer warrantys? I know advance auto doesnt carry them and autozone's coils are like 68 dollars a peice.

My plan was to order all 6 from dave b, but sunday night i got pissed at how the car was running so $hitty so i went up the street and ordered a coil, today i went straight there afterschool and the guy told me it had a lifetime warantee so im planning on buying the rest of them from there.

if you get the grey dot nissan ones, your coil problems should be over. Ive had my grey dots for... many miles, ill say about 40k, and no worries (as far as coils go) yet. I don't think its covered under warranty, cuz i paid for mine and i better not have wasted money if its covered under warranty........................... heh...

Coils for $58 W/ Lifetime warranty
My CEL (Check Engine Light) is throwing a code for "Failed Ignition Coil on Cylinder 2" on my '00 Nissan Maxima SE. Mechanic (who is a friend of mine) said it's an easy replacement. Parts salesman recommends I replace all 6 of the ignition coils.
What would the group recommend? If I'm replacing 1, should I replace all 6 at the same time? Cost for OEM Nissan part no. 22448-A33LH seems to be about $70-72 each from places like Courtesy or Trophy Nissan (online).

All Nissan parts have a 1 Year warranty...
If you can get coils for cheaper with a lifetime warranty, sounds like a deal to me and I would just all over it.
If you have a known bad coil and that seems to be the only bad one... Then save the money for now and just replace that one. I would look and see if you can get it from o'reilly with a lifetime warranty.

bigfatty, were you aware of any ecm updates or anything? cuz I've had my ecm updated + grey dots for about 40,000 miles or so and It's been trouble free, hopefully it will continue to last.

I would not be proud of that...

Are you saying that warranty is from Nissan?! Because Nissan DOES NOT warranty them for life...
...they don't warranty anything for life.

I would say that's a bargain, although I wouldn't be too concerned with coils going bad after the first replacments, although it DOES happen.
Bad coils puts you in limp mode? Or is that MAF???
