This is the ignition coil mega thread. It's a long read, but it has all the steps on how to get to each coil and a great image of the wrap. Once you see it you're going to be pissed you HAVE to buy a large roll, you can also wrap the battery location, firewall area fuel lines, brake master etc. and anything you want to deflect any added heat from the S/C.

I believe when the slip light comes with the CEL that means the car is reducing engine power to preserve the engine, which would make perfect sense if knock is a consequence, "coil doesn't fire - charge auto-ignites, i.e. knocks - ecu freaks out - figures out it's a coil issue & throws code - reduces power" which has me a bit worried as my car has definitely slowed on track in association with the code.
I haven't been back to the track in over a year since I got that code, never replaced the coil, CEL hasn't returned. You bet your ass I'll swap it before I go back to the track, especially after @DarkSunrise mentioned knock, hell I'm tempted to just swap all four when the time has come, my car's at 58k and I've already replaced one, maybe the new ones will be a bit stouter. |

This is why I replaced all 4 the 1st time I had the issue. If it happens again, ill go with the Cusco ones but they are $$$$

Does anyone have a picture or instructions on wrapping the coils in gold tape? And what kind of gold tape to use? I have no clue what kind of gold tape to buy or how/where to wrap it on the coil

I haven't wrapped my coils, but I've used this one for other engine bay wraps.. it's thicker but has slightly better heat resistance: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000QFN3DU |
