Fixed written price before any work — no obligation.
The honest answer, first
There is no honest set price for an ignition coil replacement — and anyone quoting one sight-unseen is guessing with your money. On this job the figure genuinely moves with one coil or the set — and why the set often wins; coil pricing by engine; and the plugs that should be done in the same labour. So we don’t guess: we find the actual cause first — our $374 incl. GST pre-paid diagnostic, a reserved two-hour booking with a written report, not a free quote, then you get a fixed written price for your car before any work starts. The written figure is the only number that binds anyone — hold every workshop to that standard, including us.
What drives the cost
Coil cost depends on the number of cylinders (often one coil per cylinder), the part, and whether spark plugs are due at the same time (usually sensible). European coils cost more than basic ones.
Replacing one failed coil is cheap; doing a full set plus plugs costs more — we advise what’s actually needed.
What the job involves
We confirm which coil(s) are misfiring with diagnostics, replace the faulty coil (or the set if they’re all due), fit plugs if needed, and clear the misfire.
You get a fixed written quote and honest advice on one vs the set.
