Try your local Porsche Parts Counter, or a Porsche parts counter of your choice.

CAM I looked up the Beru part for you and it shouldn't be more than 40 bucks or so....

Have you confirmed it IS the coil? Switch the coil with another one and see if the problem follows.

Well, not actually as that would infer thinking on my part...

I ran some "G2P" (Guaranteed to pass) through the fuel system
in case it was something fouled up & it made no difference.

I am replacing all 6 this week (actually having them replaced).
Might be overkill, but just kinda figured if one went then the
others could as well........dont want to get stranded
somewhere & end up kicking myself as the CEL starts flashing
when it starts missing.

Thanks for the replies guys...........

ever has!!
