2013 Coil Packs, where did you guys get them from?

[Keenercarguy]

I need to replace a 2013-2014 coilpack due to the 351 code, and I was just wondering if any of you guys got yours from a reputable online retailer for a good price. My local dealership isn't very good and I don't want to give them my business if I can help it. Thanks

So using the part numbers which are 22433AA652 (if you use subarus designation) or the toyota designation which is SU003-04670 the lowest price I could find was on ebay:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Sub...Jah9RL&vxp=mtr

or on a dealer site that I used for parts:
https://parts.conicellitoyotaofconsh...PWxheWVyXzQ%3D

You can shop around using the parts numbers for lower prices but thats the lower ones I could find. They seemed to be priced around $80-$100 online and the shipping prices are all over the place it seems.

Oh, if you just need one, I'd suggest you just get it from your dealer, then you will know it will be like the other three and most likely cheaper.

Sometimes, being stubborn is not a good trait......

Also if you show a dealer an online price from another dealer, they will likely offer to price match for you in person.

I went to Ebay and got a couple used ones. They're lying around in the car for when they go out on track days (and one did... replaced at the track in about 90 min).

No, every time I comparison shop parts at my local dealer vs. a dealer in Florida or Michigan it's always cheaper to ship it across the country.

ymmv

Check the parts list and get the highest number part that works for your vehicle put the part number into google and buy from the Subaru or Toyota dealer that has the cheapest listing (don't forget to check shipping). It'll arrive in a few days in a sealed 'official Subaru/Toyota' parts bag. Nothing bad will happen driving around on a dying coilpack as long as you're not driving it hard.

I was just looking for these. I found the Subaru ones for around $75 but don't have the site saved. Subarugenuineparts.com has an oem catalog that is usually cheap

Might've been a few decades since you've been out that way, some parts of NC are nicer than anything in SF proper imho, much less the crap places I can afford.

Well, it's been a few years since I've been to NC ...... but, I can't imagine the scenery has changed much .......

Ha, yeah I'm from one of the more expensive parts of the state...hell... region... got quoted $121 from the local dealer and about $30 cheaper from one three hours away. Should be on my step by Friday. And I've been driving on the dying coilpack for a solid too long now. Even got a CEL on fourth gear deceleration last weekend. I live in the heart of the mountains now, everyday is "driving hard" (unfortunately for my coilpacks)

[Keenercarguy]

Although having been across the country a few times now, I definitely wouldn't compare SF to NC. West coast beats east coast by leaps and bounds in most categories lol

You’re definitely going to have to elaborate on how you replaced a coil in 90 mins haha I’m very curious. I have a CEL for a shot coil and I have a replacement lying around but am too intimidated to attempt. I read on here you need to lift the engine up.

Well... My check engine light turned on for the first time.... Dang!

Ordered the coil.


How hard is this thing to install? Any insight would be appreciated. Is there a DIY?
