Re-posting since this hasn't turned up on my server for about 24 hours. Sorry if anyone ends up getting this twice.

I've had coil-on-plug ignition on my last four cars (a Nissan, an Alfa and two Saabs) and I've never had an ignition related problem on any of them. Before that, I certainly had to replace a few dizzy caps, leads, coils, condensers etc. All cheap stuff, but they were still all breakdowns. Like I said, DI tries to trade off the number of breakdowns against the cost of each one. Maybe not everyones idea of the best compromise, but that's what they went for. You'll get a very jaundiced view of DI by reading newsgroups like this one. People won't post about it unless it breaks. I'm sure there are other benefits too. Cost maybe? Cheers, Colin.
