Ignition

Revitalize your BMW's performance with NGK's Original Spark Plugs, designed to address common issues like poor idle, reduced fuel efficiency, and engine misfires associated with worn-out spark plugs. These NGK plugs offer a solution by preventing electrode wear, which causes an oversized gap and weak sparks over time. They effectively tackle carbon buildup issues that can bridge the gap and hamper performance. Replacing worn-out plugs with NGK aftermarket units restores power, enhances fuel efficiency, and ensures a smoother idle for optimal engine performance.

Product Benefits:

• Resolves poor idle, low fuel efficiency, and engine misfires
• Prevents electrode wear for consistent spark
• Reduces carbon buildup for improved performance
• Restores power and fuel efficiency
• Enhances engine smoothness and responsiveness
• Ensures better harmony within the ignition system
• Unlocks hidden horsepower and raises fuel economy

Every 60-80,000 miles, we recommend replacing your spark plugs to ensure your ignition system is running optimally. Over time carbon can build up around the head of the spark plug and decrease spark strength and effectiveness, leading to weaker fuel mixture detonation, misfires, and potential check engine lights. To prevent this, have put together our High-Performance Ignition Service Kits. These kits include new Bav Auto High-Performance Ignition Coils, new spark plugs, dielectric grease, and a BMW spark plug service label to keep track of when your spark plugs were replaced.

Bav Auto's Ignition coils feature core windings that have been modified to increase firepower and promote a faster, more efficient burn. This gives your BMW/MINI increased torque in the lower range of RPM and more horsepower in the upper range. Exact improvements depend on the current condition of your engine, but you'll definitely feel the difference. They'll also improve your fuel economy.

From 1974 to 2019, Bavarian Autosport was one of the premier vendors for BMW and MINI auto parts. We are happy to preserve the Bav Auto legacy by continuing to carry their high-quality products into the future. All Bav Auto parts will remain unchanged in design and sourced from the same OEM suppliers to ensure long-lasting reliability. We trust these parts, accessories, and upgrades so confidently that we back every Bavarian Autosport branded component with a 2-year warranty.

As a leading source of high-performance BMW parts and accessories since 1993, we at Turner Motorsport are honored to be the go-to supplier for tens of thousands of enthusiasts the world over. With over two decades of parts, service, and racing experience under our belt, we provide only quality performance and replacement parts. All of our performance parts are those we would (and do!) install and run on our own cars, as well as replacement parts that are Genuine BMW or from OEM manufacturers. We only offer parts we know you can trust to perform!

If you're noticing misfires, poor fuel economy, reduced engine performance, or ignition-related diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), a failing ignition coil is likely the cause. Late-model BMWs, such as the E60 M5, E63 M6, and E64 M6, use a coil-on-plug ignition system, where each cylinder has its own coil and spark plug for efficient ignition. When a coil fails, the affected cylinder won't receive a spark and will misfire. Even if the misfire doesn’t trigger a DTC, you’ll still feel the difference in engine performance—rough idling, hesitation during acceleration, or a strong fuel smell. To avoid these issues, we recommend replacing your ignition coils every 40,000-60,000 miles.

The S85's MSS65 DME uses a unique ignition system known as Ionic Current Control. BMW engineers developed this system to more accurately detect pre-ignition and misfires in the high-revving, ten-cylinder S85. Instead of relying on conventional knock sensors, the system uses each spark plug as a current probe, applying a low voltage to the electrode immediately after the power stroke and sending the resulting current to the Ionic Current Control Unit (ISS) for evaluation. This allows for precise monitoring of combustion events. To support this, the S85’s ignition coils are specially designed with a modified “pencil” shape and lack the typical Zener diode in the secondary winding, allowing for accurate current measurements without triggering fault codes in the engine control unit (DME). Bavarian Autosport ignition coils are manufactured to the exact specifications of the OE Ionic Current Control-compatible ignition coils, and will not trigger ignition-related fault codes in the DME.

Bavarian Autosport ignition coils are engineered for reliability, delivering a consistent, long-lasting spark. These high-quality OE replacement coils are specifically designed for your S85-powered E60 M5, E63 M6, or E64 M6. Constructed with durable, heat-resistant plastic and featuring premium rubber spark plug boots, each boot is pre-lubricated with dielectric grease to ensure smooth installation and prevent corrosion.

Features & Benefits:

Bavarian Autosport Ignition Coils - Set of Ten Durable, temperature-resistant plastic construction is designed to withstand extreme heat and harsh conditions, ensuring long-lasting performance. High-quality rubber spark plug boots are pre-lubricated with dielectric grease to prevent moisture intrusion and potential corrosion. Built to meet or exceed OE manufacturing standards, guaranteeing a perfect fit, reliable performance, and seamless installation. NGK 4471 LKR8AP Spark Plugs - Set of Ten Multi-ground electrodes improve ignition capability and are less sensitive to increased voltage use with gap growth. Corrugated ribs prevent flashover. Copper core aids in heat removal. Pre-gapped to 0.035" (0.9mm) OEM-specified spark plug for all S85 applications.

Often an oversight in maintenance, ignition components are also susceptible to wear and tear. Spark Plugs can accumulate carbon, reducing the spark intensity and it's ability to properly ignite the air/fuel mixture, leading to misfires and generally declining performance. Other ignition components, such as coils, boots, wires, caps, and rotors, can also wear out over time due to factors like heat and contamination, preventing the current from reaching the spark plug.

To start over fresh with all new components, we now offer these Ignition Service Kits. Each kit comes with brand new OE quality components, replacing any potential fault points in your ignition system for peak performance!
