Coil packs deteriorate over time..
So slowly that you don't even notice the deterioration..
Although, once you put the new one on, it's noticeable..

If you haven't changed your yet I say do it..
You'll notice the difference a new one makes..

If you haven't done leads and plugs in a while do them at the same time...

Last I heard MSD don't do one for the I6..

NSD do one for the explorer V6, which apparently can be used in an AU1, though the firing order is different so it's a case of work out what goes where.

So it's easier just to say they don't do one for an AU I6. They do for the V8s though.
