Ignition Coil & Iridium Spark Plugs for Mercedes-Benz C350 E350 ML350 R350 (2006-2011) 3.5L V6

High-Performance Ignition Coil & Iridium Spark Plugs for 2006-2011 Mercedes Benz C-Class, E-Class, M-Class

What it Does: This direct-replacement ignition coil and iridium spark plug kit restores combustion efficiency and resolves stubborn misfires on the 3.5L V6 Mercedes-Benz engine platforms.

The Stock M272 Thermal Degradation Problem

The OEM ignition coils on the Mercedes-Benz M272 engine are notorious for premature thermal degradation. Mounted tightly against the cylinder heads, these coils suffer from chronic heat soak, which causes the internal epoxy to crack over time and resistance values to spike. This breakdown leads to weak spark delivery, sluggish throttle response, rough idling, and inevitable P0300-series misfire trouble codes. Additionally, factory spark plugs lose their gap tolerance through long-term electro-erosion, significantly lowering combustion efficiency and placing destructive strain on the primary windings of the already failing coils.

The Engineering Solution

This comprehensive ignition kit features heavy-duty replacement coils engineered with premium internal copper windings to ensure maximum voltage transfer and superior heat dissipation. By upgrading the internal material composition, these coils withstand the extreme thermal cycling characteristic of the 3.5L V6 architecture, preventing epoxy cracking and extending operational lifespan well beyond OE specifications. Coupled with high-efficiency iridium spark plugs—which offer a 15% increase in energy transfer over standard plugs—this system provides a highly concentrated, reliable spark. The ultra-fine iridium center electrode ensures precise ignition timing, complete fuel burn, and stabilized idle, eliminating acceleration hesitation and restoring factory power output.

Common Questions

Will this ignition coil and spark plug kit fit my 2006-2011 Mercedes-Benz E350 or ML350 3.5L V6?
Yes, this kit is a direct replacement for 2006-2011 Mercedes-Benz C350, E350, ML350, and R350 models equipped with the M272 3.5L V6 engine.

Will this kit fit a 2012 or 2013 model with the direct-injected M276 3.5L V6?
No. This kit is built specifically for the 2006-2011 M272 3.5L V6, not the direct-injected M276.

What is included in this ignition kit?
The kit includes direct-replacement heavy-duty ignition coils with internal copper windings and matching iridium spark plugs with ultra-fine center electrodes.

What problems does it fix?
Weak spark, sluggish throttle response, rough idle and P0300-series misfire codes caused by heat-worn coils and plugs.

Does installation require any wiring modifications?
The coils and iridium spark plugs are direct-replacement components engineered to mount in the factory cylinder head locations and plug directly into the stock wiring connectors.
