Ignition for BMW 3 Series E90 (2006-2011)

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

Your BMW's ignition system is critical for smooth engine operation. This category contains parts used in the BMW ignition system, including spark plugs, ignition coils, spark plug wires and boots, ignition rotors and caps, distributors and distributor caps. On most 1991 and later model BMWs, your car has what's known as a coil-on-plug system, where each cylinder has its own ignition coil that sits directly atop the spark plug (so you won't have spark plug wires on those BMWs.) A fresh set of spark plugs is an essential part of any BMW engine tune up.

VTT is proud to offer its very own N54 to B58 Coil conversion kit for the N54 platform. While factory coil upgrades such as S55, and our own N54 coil upgrades do provide more spark, the BMW B58 ignition coils are extremely robust and can support well over 1000whp with no issues. This means a plug, and play affordable solution that fits like stock, and looks AMAZING doing so! Vargas's 6061-T6 Billet bracket comes in a variety of colors including matching shades for every N54 Valve Cover we offer (even the cast wrinkle). This means you can mix and match the color of the bracket with coil color, with VC color to truly tailor your engine bay to look exactly how you want it to! The kit comes with the following: 1 – Billet Aluminum Coil Bracket in the color of choice or Genuine Carbon Fiber 6 – Plug and play VTT wiring harnesses 6 – Custom VTT stalks to convert the B58 coils to the N54 head (We ensure proper spring length inside the boot for optimal spring to plug contact) 6 – Coils in the color of choice (optional) **Note: This only fits the stock N54 Valve covers or Vargas Billet and Cast Valve Covers.

Ignition coils are key to the efficiency and performance of your BMW. With a faulty coil the spark plug is not burning the air/fuel mixture properly and that can lead to problems anywhere in the engine and exhaust (including catalytic converters and O2 sensors). Problems with one or more coils will cause a fault code, but not always a check engine light. A misfire code may be related to an ignition coil, but could be from other things as well. ometimes, a visual inspection of a coil and coil boot will give an indication of a failure. You can also move coils around to different cylinder banks to see if the misfire code follows a suspect coil. We suggest always having one or two coils on hand to keep as spares.
