Default How long do the ignition coils last? and what are symptoms they are bad?

Just curious how long the coils last? Im at about 165,000miles, so just about every little thing is going slowly. did the spark plugs and wires when i got the car, so about 25,000miles ago.

what are the symptoms when they go bad? will i get a CEL?

you will typically get a misfire if a coil goes bad. and yes,you will probably get the CEL as well. i would not worry about it unless you are having issues.
