As always, I appreciate your well thought and well said response. Thanks for that!

I changed the plugs and coils on a 2005 330ci that I had owned since new and some of the coils were indeed difficult to extract, but not undoable. So I’ll use the independent for the fluid changes and do the plugs and coils myself. I actually enjoy doing it.

That being said I have found OEM Ignition Service Kits (Plugs and coils) online for around $400.00, and other kits with Delphi coils and NGK (sometimes Bosch) plugs for around $200. Would it behoove me to spring for the OEM? I think that Bosch supplies BMW.
