Where is a good place to get coil packs at a good price for a 99 S80 T6?

    I had replaced only one, then the others started to fail for some reason. Do yourself a favor, replace them all! If one has failed, they will all fail.

    Find an online site that has free shipping. Or Ford??? LOL

    Remember to replace only the one that is bad, which is normally #3 for some wierd reason.

      Thanks KlausC. Are the coil packs either good or bad? I have been getting a misfire. Could it be the plugs that I put in not to long ago?

        If the misfire is always in the same cylinder, trade that coil pack with one from another cylinder. If the coil pack is bad, the new position will misfire.

        Did you put copper plugs in the car (OEM), or some cheapies :)

          Thanks, I put in BOSCH-PLATINUM+4 Spark Plugs. Someone told me I should have put in the OEM. Do you agree?

            Spark plug selection for Volvos has been a matter of debate for decades, I think. I've heard reports of stalling and other problems with non-Volvo plugs.

            I don't know who actually makes the Volvo brand plugs. I do know that they are reliable, good for 30,000 miles plus, and reasonably priced.

            The 4 prong plugs have been known to lose a prong and get caught in the intake valve causing great damage. True or not, I prefer to reamin cautious.
