Frequently asked questions about Subaru ignition coil change & replacements
Read our answers to questions about ignition coil replacement costs, symptoms and more.
What does an ignition coil replacement on my Subaru involve?
- Mechanic will read the ECU for possible fault codes related to the ignition system.
- Mechanic will inspect the ignition system and spark plugs.
- If necessary, the mechanic will replace the ignition coil pack(s)
- Mechanic will advise if any other parts need to be replaced.
- Mechanic will check if the ignition system works correctly again and will test drive the car.
What are the symptoms of a bad Subaru ignition coil?
The main symptoms that can occur when there is a faulty ignition coil are;
- When starting the car is problematic.
- When the engine cuts out after starting.
- When the engine does not run smoothly (the engine misfires).
- When the car vibrates excessively.
- When the 'Check Engine' light on the car's dashboard is on.
How long does it take to replace an ignition coil on my Subaru?
An ignition coil or coil pack replacement usually takes around 1 hour, but can take less or more time. Ultimately, the time that the job will take will depend on a number of factors, like your vehicle's make and model, year, as well as other factors. Select your car at the top of this page for information on job time and cost for your vehicle through ClickMechanic.
How often should I replace my Subaru ignition coil?
Ignition coils are critical to the smooth running of an engine. Without them, the engine will simply not work as it should, if at all. Therefore as soon as you are advised that the ignition coil(s) need changing, you should do so. Running an engine with a faulty ignition coil can also cause additional wear and tear on other items.
Ideally, even if there are individual ignition coils per cylinder, they are replaced as a set and not individually. On engines where there is one coil pack covering all the cylinders, there is no option in this.
What are the symptoms of a failing Subaru ignition coil?
The symptoms of a failing ignition coil can include:
- Engine misfires
- Vehicle may vibrate or experience juddering
- Reduced fuel economy
- Decrease in engine power
Should I replace all Subaru ignition coils at once?
If you have one bad ignition coil, it’s possible that the others may go bad soon. Replacing all of them will save you the hassle of having to replace them one at a time.
When should I replace my coils in my Subaru?
There is no specific time period for when you need to replaced ignition coils, however, it's good practice to get them checked during an annual service and inspected for wear and tear every 50,000 miles or so.
