Is there a certain brand the BMW's prefer? I see a lot of different brands of coils Rock auto offers.
Thanks,

The rubber boots that connect the coil pack to the plug are a failure point on these engines. I would replace all 6 when doing the plugs at that age/mileage. The coil packs are individual units, one per cylinder. I would go OEM on those if you want them to last; check AutohausAZ for better than dealer pricing.
Thanks, I sent him the link to the parts he needs.
