Update on coil failure

Well I don't know what all the comotion was on getting a new coil. My dealer got one in two days and will be installing it this afternoon.

All I have to do now is make sure they don't wash the car and scratch it up

I guess they are slowly coming in... BTW, out of curiosity, when was your car made? The manufacture date is on the driver side door jamb towards the bottom... thanks

My car shows a date of 4/00 on the white sticker between the doors on the drivers side.
Wheather that is date of manufacture or when it arrived at the port I don't know. Either way early 2000 seems to be the build time.

You can always wait until one fails.
