Hyundai Kona Coil Pack Replacement Parts

Only petrol-engined Kona variants have coil packs — diesel engines use a different ignition system and have no coil pack at all, so if you drive a diesel Kona this is not the part you need. The Kona was sold in the UK with petrol engines including 1.0 T-GDi and 1.6 T-GDi units, and both of these turbocharged petrol engines do use individual ignition coils (sometimes referred to collectively as a coil pack). If you have a Kona Electric, there is no combustion engine and therefore no coil pack exists on that variant either.

The original Kona (Mk1) ran from 2017 to 2023, with a facelift arriving around 2020–2021, so a 2018 car is pre-facelift and a 2022 car is post-facelift — both sit within the same first generation. Fitment of mechanical ignition components like coil packs follows the engine code rather than the model year, so if both cars share the same engine code (for example both running the 1.0 T-GDi or both running the 1.6 T-GDi) the coil is likely to be compatible, but you should confirm this against your specific registration with the breaker before buying.

No — trim level makes no difference to coil pack fitment on the Kona; trims such as SE, SE Connect, Premium, and N Line all use the same ignition components as long as the engine is the same. What matters is the engine code, which you can find on your V5C or via a VIN check, so always supply that to the breaker rather than quoting your trim name. You may find cosmetic differences between parts pulled from different trims, but for a coil pack there is nothing visible that would concern you.

The 1.0 T-GDi is a three-cylinder engine, so it has three individual ignition coils — one per cylinder — and breakers will typically list these as individual coils rather than a single unit. It is generally good practice to replace all three at the same time if one has failed, as the others will be of similar age and mileage. When contacting a breaker, confirm your engine code and let them know whether you want a single coil or the full set of three.

Hyundai and Kia share engines across several models under the Hyundai Motor Group umbrella, so a coil from a Kona running the 1.0 T-GDi or 1.6 T-GDi may physically match units from other group vehicles using the same engine code. However, confirming cross-model compatibility is something the breaker should verify against both registration numbers, as ancillary components and connector types can differ even between cars sharing an engine family. Never assume compatibility based on engine size alone — the engine code is the detail that matters.

The single most useful detail is your engine code, which appears on your V5C logbook or can be retrieved via a VIN check — for the Kona this will identify whether you have the 1.0 T-GDi, 1.6 T-GDi, or another petrol variant. You should also provide your registration number and confirm whether your car is petrol, as diesel and electric Konas do not use coil packs at all. The breaker does not need your trim level or body colour, as these have no bearing on which coil pack your engine requires.
