Recommending OE-Quality Ignition Coils

Recommending OE-Quality Ignition Coils

Your customers need an OE-quality replacement coil that's designed to withstand extreme operating conditions.

When you’re recommending replacement ignition coils, the stakes are high for your customers. 

Cheap, low-quality ignition coils can result in uneven or rough idle with misfires; considerable drop in performance; and an increase in fuel consumption. They can cause damage to the oxygen sensor and catalytic converter and can cause excessive exhaust emissions. counterfeits can run hot and can even catch fire.  And cheap copies can deliver excessive voltage to the ECU, ultimately destroying it.

Your best bet is to recommend an ignition coil from a supplier with proven OE experience and a full range of ignition components.

CVTs Unique Diagnostic Challenges

This video explores how CVTs work, common challenges for technicians, and the importance of trusting scan tools over test drives when diagnosing issues like slipping or shuttering.

Continuously variable transmissions or CVTs offer a seamless driving experience by using a belt and pulley system to provide an infinite range of gear ratios. Unlike traditional automatic transmissions that have a fixed number of cure ratios, cbts can adjust to any situation without the noticeable gear shifts, allowing the engine to operate at its most efficient RPM for a range of vehicle speeds. While cbts provide some unique benefits to drivers who don't enjoy the sound or sensation of their vehicle changing gears, they also provide some unique challenges to your DIFM customers who work on them. For example, if a transmission doesn't have any gears, how do you know if it is shifting smoothly or slipping? The answer is to not go on, feel, or compare it to an automatic transmission. The secret is for the technician to trust their scan tool more than the test drive. A CVT transmission has a multitude of sensors inside and on the case.
