Hi,

I'm new to this Forum. I have a Porsche 986 Boxster 2002 59 000 miles.
I'm getting ready for my 60 000 mile service (to do myself) and I'm shopping for ignition coils, since they seem to be the most expensive part of the service.
I've read about the coils starting with the serial number 996 and the ones starting with 997. I read that the 997's were the newest ones on the market. Is there a difference?
I found a good deal on Ebay for the 997's for about $300, has anybody found a better deal anywhere?

Thanks

Markus

Hi markus!
lovely to have another porsche owner on board. I have a 996 911 C2.
Sadly, I can't offer much help with the ignition coil question. I'm still getting to know my carrera. Maybe someone else can chime in on that?
