Well I'm not to sure how often they will go but I suppose you have to expect a few minor problems with remaps. Obviously with more power and strain on the engine it's more likely you will encounter small problems.

As for delivery I ordered my yesterday now as it's 2am as in at 1pm on Monday 6th and they are due today on 7th as I've just checked tracking. Not bad for free delivery!

Recent versions shouldn't really go very often. There are a few cars on here still with very early ones on Stage 2 maps, believe it or not.

If your car is remapped then you can reduce the strain on the coilpacks by using colder grade spark plugs, such as NGK Iridium BKR7EIX.

Coilpacks do still fail on non-remapped cars to though, remember. It's a bit of a lottery really.

The latest "D" version is what they will replace anything earlier than "R" suffix with in the service recall programme.

OK cool, thanks for the info. I'm still happy with my M versions from Awesome though, particularly as they came in cheaper than similar items from a dealer.

Bear in mind that the timeline for revisions of the 06A series (black) and 06C series (red) do not coincide, hence "D" revision is the latest in 06C series (why D comes after R I don't know! LOL) and "M" revision is latest in the 06C series, so they are essentially equivalent.
Previous revisions of 06A were manufactured by Bremi, interestingly both D.rev. 06A and M.rev. 06C are made by Eldor..

Would faulty coil pack(s) causing revs to fluctuate or drop when coming to a stand still?

Don't quote me on this bit before I fitted my new ones today myn on idling was a tad rough, revs only fluctuated a bit though but since new ones it idles so smoothly. Don't go buying them on my info though as others on here will be able to give you better information.

Yeh what I would have done fora magnetic Allen key, I nearly lost a few bolts myself. Also had trouble getting the connections off the coilpacks, broke one of the clips! Pushed it back on and was quite snug so hope it stays on ok. I noticed it ticks over alot smoother than it did previously aswel. Happy with it just don't want them to go again soon as it cost me over a tank of fuels worth for parts and the hassle of doing it lol!
