Flamma Ignition Coils

[RusT]

Hi All,

Need your expert advise on replacing ignition coils.

My car is a Toyota SCP90 and three ignition coils have weakened. Need to replace them as it's causing rough idle and engine hesitation.

The genuine Denso coil costs around Rs.35,000 at Toy#ta L#nka. Even getting it down from Japan will cost around Rs.25,000.

There's the Flamma Ignition Coil (made by YEC) brought down by GS Auto. One coil costs around Rs. 9500.

Does anyone have experience with this brand?

My other option would be get reconditioned Denso coils which is about Rs.6500 per coil.

Not going to comment on FLAMMA coils. But what I can say is that a lot of Lankans end up spending more money on the long run by opting for cheap/unknown parts in the hope of saving a few thousands at the beginning. Go for the original or a reputed OEM brand.

FLAMMA ICs..not the most popular here and people mostly go for them for older cars where the manufacturer and major OEMs don't support it any longer. If the original from Japan is 25,000ish..what is stopping you from getting it down from there ?

Hi @iRage

 

Thanks for the input. Yeah thought about it and going to get the coils down from Japan, TL prices are absurd for some stuff.
