M157 and M278 ignition coils

Hello!

I suppose that M157 and M278 share the same coils. Is it so? Where do you guys have bought coil to your cars and what price?

There are a few part numbers that I know:

A 276 906 3700
A 276 906 0501
A 276 906 1001 is the new version that I want to have.

In here Finland the price is 810e/954 dollars. Even Germany there are no available before 1-2 month waiting time said the official MB part shop in Finland.

I haven't found these new part number coils on eBay.

Are you guys using these ignition coils and without problems? https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/mer...eru-2769060501

Or what ignition coils are you tuning guys using?

I can buy those same coils here in Finland and price is quite nice https://www.autodoc.fi/beru/7616480

So the OEM coil is BERU and you are using those with your AMS high end tune? And FCP euro is selling those like u said.

The OEM part numbers have changed three times: A 276 906 3700, A 276 906 0501, A 276 906 1001 maybe there are upgrades/work better on there with lates model? But what model are they selling, or does it matter?

Thanks a lot PeterUbers I will buy those Berus. If those work in your car they work 100% for my purpose.

My car is driven now 95 000 miles and still on stock ignition coils. No misfires or problems now. Before my last dynosession with M157 turbos I want to change those coils just to be sure I will get the best results. Those original ignition coils can't last forever..

Oh okay I will replaced them asap when I get new ones. I don't want any misfire show or power reduce problems on custom dynotuning session. What is your opinion how long can ignition coils last and need to be changed?

My Shooting brake is now with M157 turbos and supporting mods+TCU tune. Really conservative ECU tune now, just 608hv and 900nm crank power. I did Dragy 3,41s 0-60. Later this year my tuner will finish the job and try to get 670-700hp crank horsepower and about 1100nm out with pump gas.

Maybe later when I get bored those power levels its time to go ethanol blends. Heh, Really that can happen soon, because I like the power and get bored it soon and more is always better..

Thanks again PeterUbers. Without this forum and you guys, also Brett to mention one, have been a great help to me. I wouldn't have tuned/moded my car as it is now running. Its such a rare car in Finland.
