Nice price, but a waste of money if they are useless. I've only use HAAS coil pack and leads when I needed a cheap fix on step son's Mk1 Focus. Did the job but anything was going to be better than a broken plug lead and a dead terminal on a coil pack. Miracle it was even running on 2 cylinders.

Bradders59 Posted April 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 Thanks, sounds like they are best avoided on a Boxster then. Ideally someone with technical knowledge of the difference between 177 & 178 will be along any minute...........🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradders59 Posted April 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 Did it have 177,s in it previously ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradders59 Posted April 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 To my eye, they dont look quite the same ? Question is, if they arent quite the same, does the difference matter ? I wish I knew. Is it safe to assume they will be the same internally ? I wish I knew. 177 Ignition Coil (beruparts.eu) 178 Beru Ignition Coil (beruparts.co.uk) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the product image they show on their website it only has it at the top too. https://www.carparts4less.co.uk/ignition-coil I cant see you going wrong with the 177... just buy it. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T911UK Posted April 9, 2021 Report Share Posted April 9, 2021 There is no physical difference between the Beru 177 and the 178, they look identical, I checked our latest stock. Sorry, the only difference is difference the 177's have "177" printed on them and the 178's have "178" printed on them The rubber seals are the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are your pants on fire? 😉😂 On a serious note, what about the attachment bolts, are they the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
