Thanks for your reply. I am about at my wits end on this and thinking that is the only viable solution at present.

One of the comments in one of the online listings for a coil was a mechanic who purchased two, went through a saga to actually get them, only to have them do the same thing that I'm seeing. Mechanic said he had to acquire used coils to get his customer back on the road. It does not makes much sense to me to buy a used OEM BMW coil only to have to replace it again...although, I am now so good at it, it only takes like 3-5 minutes to pull the intake and swap coils on that side.
