Any reason to replace coils if not cracked

[nlmproductions]

I'm about to replace the plugs at 60k miles, any reason to replace the coils if there isn't any issues?

Thanks

Hey there from Hollywood and welcome.

IMHO, if there are not any issues (no misfires/hesitation/issues when wet/cracked/etc.), then no unless you are doing it as a preventative measure.

You can try to search you may be able to ohm out (test with multi meter) your coil packs to see if they are operating fine electrically.

When replacing the plugs check for oil and replace "O" rings (2 per tube) if oil is present. Examine coil packs and if they are not cracked and they are in good shape you can save your money and reinstall them. I have 120K and change plugs every 30K and have not had to replace a coil pack yet.

Thanks all for your responses...Thursday the big day so I will inspect the coils and leave if not damaged.

Thanks again, and hopefully this will all go without a hitch.
