Ignition Coil Replacement Cost
What owners actually paid
The shaded middle is where half of all these repairs landed: $230 – $570. The price on any one car depends on the vehicle — the table below shows the range for each.
What this repair is
Each coil turns battery voltage into the spark that fires a cylinder. A failed coil means a misfire you can feel — shaking, lost power, flashing check-engine light. Shops often replace the spark plugs at the same time, since worn plugs are what overwork coils in the first place.

What moves the price
- One or a set — coils fail one at a time, but a set at high mileage avoids repeat visits.
- Plugs with it — worn plugs kill coils — they usually get replaced together.
- Access — rear-bank coils on transverse V6 engines can mean removing the intake.
Quotes near the low end usually mean a single coil on top of the engine. Quotes near the high end usually mean a full set of coils with new plugs, rear-bank coils under the intake on V6 engines.
