Ignition Coil & Iridium Spark Plugs for Land Rover LR2 (2008-2012) 3.2L I6

Direct-Fit Ignition Coil & Iridium Spark Plugs for 2008-2012 Land Rover LR2

Replaces failing OEM coils and worn plugs to restore proper combustion, eliminate misfires, and stabilize idle in the 3.2L inline-six engine.

The Factory L359 Ignition System Shortcomings

The OEM ignition coils on the Volvo-sourced 3.2L SI6 engine are prone to premature degradation due to extreme heat cycling inherent in a transverse inline-six layout. Over time, the continuous thermal stress breaks down the internal epoxy resin and secondary copper windings, leading to increased electrical resistance. This manifests as weak spark output, P0300-series misfire codes, rough idling, and reduced fuel efficiency. Furthermore, standard factory plugs suffer from rapid electrode wear, widening the plug gap and forcing the ignition coils to work harder, which drastically accelerates their failure rate.

The Engineering Solution

This comprehensive ignition overhaul kit addresses factory vulnerabilities by pairing high-output coils with premium iridium spark plugs. The upgraded coils feature reinforced dielectric epoxy and high-conductivity copper wire windings, significantly reducing internal resistance while isolating against high-voltage arcing. This ensures consistent spark energy even under heavy engine load. The included iridium spark plugs utilize a highly durable, fine-wire center electrode with a significantly higher melting point than traditional platinum or copper plugs. This stable gap retention guarantees efficient combustion, preventing unburned fuel from fouling the catalytic converters and ensuring smooth power delivery across the entire RPM band.
