So my car(2001 144, 1,8) has recently been giving the code P0301. First tried swapping the spark plugs - slight improvement in performance, but the code kept popping up. So today I tried swapping the coils between cylinder 1 and 2, and the code changed from P0301 to P0302. So I guess a new coil is next on the agenda! 

Is this a part I should fork out for an original replacement part, or is any cheap option good enough? Considering it's getting on a bit, I don't really feel like spending too much if it isn't necessary. 

Thank you in advance for any reply! :)

Ah, forgot the posting rules regarding topic name! 

Can't find any options to edit, maybe a nice moderator could help me out?

Yup coil replacement needed since the code moved on to the next one, you can confirm by unplugging it with the engine running, no change in the engine idle/sound then it's defo dead etc.

If one has failed however the others may not be that far away either.A used coil will be ok.
