ignition coil keeps blowing

[Ryanmcguckin]

Hi, my ignition coil blew and i have just had it fixed. picked my car up this morning and it started and drove fine, however once i got home i turned off the engine and when i went back out to it earlier it wouldnt start again! i was told this is a common fault with clios. was wondering if anyone knew any soloutions or had any ideas that could help.

Cheers, Ryan

Coil pack or pencil coils? Load of BS if it's a coil pack especially genuine parts and they're not at all common. Obviously cheap parts are generally crap and should be avoided at all cost when it comes to ignition parts (IMO). Individual pencil coils are prone to failing especially the cheap auto factor items that retail at £55 for a full set but the genuine Beru items rarely fail these days - they are however £45+vat each!
