No worries, I ordered a Bosch last night as I was looking between Bosch and Delphi originally. Bosch seemed to overall have better reviews. I’ve used both in different cars before and never had issues, guess we’ll see. Both seem to make solid products. Thanks for the responses.

Bremi or Delphi would be a better choice given the deterioration in Bosch quality over the past decade or more.
TrKy3 - you can find the BMW part number using a tool like https://www.realoem.com/bmw/select.do
Once you have that part number you can shop the various vendors. FCP Euro offers a free replacement warranty so if you purchase from them it will be the last time you pay for that part, even brakes, oil, oil filters, wiper blades, etc.
Happy hunting!

Thanks man. I was looking at Delphi also, and people were posting pictures recently of them falling apart and being crappy quality.
We shall see how the Bosch performs, appreciate all of the quick responses.
Edit: Went with Delphi and cancelled the Bosch, as I just ordered plugs from FCP anyhow.
Thanks for the advice everyone.

Coil pack was easy to replace, first time having to doing it on these cars.
Thanks for the guidance on using Delphi, fixed the misfire.

Just 1, a coil is a part you generally replace once it goes. I have seen coils last 80k and some last 200k.
Fixed the slight misfire, and replaced all of the plugs while I was in there.
If I was paying someone to do it, I would have likely replaced all of them, but it was pretty easy to swap in.
