Low cost source for xB2 coil-pack?
Since I may well have to replace a coil-pack I've started hunting and I see my original 90919-C2006 (marked 90919-C2002) has been replaced by 90919-02260, wonder when that change was made and if it reflects the problems people here reported?
Still, best price for the -02260 I've seen thus far is $79.10 including $12.01 shipping to DE. Anyone know of a lower cost source?
By the way, be wary of Ebay sellers -- one has a coil-pack listed specifically for the xB2, but the part number he specifies is 90919-A2001, which is not correct for our cars. I sent a message to let him know, hopefully he fixes it.

Interesting, per the net the -A2001 is for Camry, Corolla, Solara, Matrix, Tacoma, Tundra, Highlander, 4 Runner and the equivalent part# is 90919-02248. Seems odd, -02248 and -02260 being the same thing? Are you certain they're entirely equivalent?

Well, guess I'm kind of confused at this point. Both ToyotaPartsZone and ToyotaPartsEast list the -A2001 as being the current replacement for the xB2. Plus, TRDSparks lists the -A2001, but not the -02260. So, I don't understand what happened, but it's looking as though the -A2001/-02248 is the real McCoy.
If that's truly the case, then I guess it becomes a question of coil-pack origin, which appears to be China Vs Japan. But either way, the -A2001 is definitely available on Ebay at a lower price.

Well, my inclination (blame ignorance if you will ) is to prefer the -02260. I would really like to run across definitive info, but that is seeming unlikely ! I don't wish to purchase something that will merely do the "job" for my car, but rather whatever is actually preferable for it -- if I'm going to spend money, I want a fix, not a band-aid !

If anyone has any practical knowledge of these coils, I'd love to learn a little more than I'm finding on the net.

Don't know if anyone's following this thread, but thanks to overwhelming evidence, I've concluded my best choice is an -A2001 equivalent coil. I've identified a supposedly equivalent "BWD Automotive" E995 and given an attractive price, anticipate checking it out on cylinder #4 (don't need further variables on #'s 1 and 3). I'll report here with my results on all three cylinders.

To be sure, it may not apply to anyone else, and indeed, may be my own fault! However, here's the thread where I first reported my problem .
