Which BMW engines does this coil fit?

It fits the M54 inline-six (2.5L and 3.0L), N62 V8 (4.4L and 4.8L) and N73 V12 (6.0L) from 2002 to 2010. That covers E46, E60/E61, E63/E64, E65/E66, E83, E53 and E85 models.

Does it replace the original Bosch coil?

Yes. It cross-references Bosch 0221504464 and BMW 12137551260, and uses the same OEM-spec connector and factory mounting bolt.

Is it a direct fit or does it need modification?

It is a direct-fit OE replacement. It reuses the factory bolt and boot, so no wiring or adapter is needed.

How many coils come with it?

It is a single ignition coil. Multi-cylinder engines need one coil per cylinder, so order the quantity your engine requires.

Should I replace all coils at once?

Replacing only the failed coil is common, but on high-mileage engines many owners replace the full set so the remaining originals do not fail soon after.

What are the symptoms of a failing coil?

Misfires, rough idle, hesitation under load and a check-engine light with a misfire code are typical. Swapping the coil to another cylinder can confirm the fault.

Our take on the Rareelectrical Ignition Coil

A pencil-style ignition coil built as a direct-fit replacement for BMW M54 inline-six, N62 V8 and N73 V12 engines from 2002 to 2010. It uses the OEM-spec connector and reuses the factory bolt and boot, so installation is plug-and-play with no wiring changes. It cross-references Bosch 0221504464 and BMW 12137551260, which makes it a straightforward alternative to the original coil for misfire or rough-running repairs. It suits owners of E46, E60, E63, E65, E83, E53 and E85 models doing their own ignition service.
