2004 boxster s limited edition

[10/10ths]

...Because of the engine location on the Boxster, the coil packs get splashed by water.

I drive the snot outta my car in all weather.

The coil packs tend to crack from exposure to water as they get shock cooled.

They are wear items on these cars.

The second set I installed was just preventative as I was replacing the plugs, so I had the old coils out, why not put new ones in?

I am pretty hard core with my preventative maintenance and my change intervals are sooner than most folks.

But that is why I don’t get stranded in Utah any 2am in a rainstorm.

I drive this car everywhere, all the time, in all weather.

Good luck.

Thank you 10/10ths, it makes sense because in SoCal (sadly), we rarely see rain..

....I heard a song about that once, ”...it never rains in California, but man let me warn ya, it pours, man it pours...” Or something like that.

Cheers!
