Eldor coils fitment question

halcyon_waves · 04-13-2021, 01:30 PM

I'm in the market for new coils and after much research decided on Eldor coils (12138657273). Every single site I visit doesn't list my 2013 F30 335i (N55) under their list of vehicles that fit, and so far the only indication I've gotten that it may fit my car are a couple of reviews of people throwing them on N55s and a few YouTube videos. I understand there are differences amongst N55s but why would, for example, OEM Bimmerparts say that it fits for 2013-15 335i xDrive but not my rear wheel drive 2013 335i? Another site says it fits 2014-15 335i but doesn't list 2012-13 models - how come? I can't see how coils would be any different for EWG vs PWG models. Will these in fact fit my car/function properly? Fairly new to working on cars so any insight is much appreciated!

I have the eldors on my 2015 N55. Sites don't list them, but they definitely fit and operate properly. Got mine from fcp. Same coils for the pwg n55. You're good.

Thanks for the response guys. Wonder why they're not listed as compatible for certain vehicles.. anyhow, will definitely cop some. Excited to try em out!
