Ignition Coils For 2005 Ford Freestyle

The 2005 Ford Freestyle came with only one engine. The 3.0L V6 offered in the 2005 Freestyle uses 6 individual ignition coils instead of the single coil pack style setup. These ignition coils are priced $50 and more at many local auto parts stores and dealers. Yes, that is for each ignition coil pack. You will need 6 for your 2005 Freestyle. This is out of reach for many people, Araparts was started to make it easier. We sell full sets of ignition coils for your Freestyle at incredible prices, and they have a lifetime warranty and free shipping. Sounds too good to be true? Many of our customers are skeptical at first because of our low price, and we understand. The reason why we are so much cheaper is not because the coil packs at Araparts are poor quality. It is because we buy large quantities in order to get an amazing price, and pass those savings along to you. Yes, that means we order 500-1,000 or more each ignition coil pack for your 2005 Ford Freestyle.

 

Identifying a Misfire in your 2005 Ford Freestyle

 

Some obvious signs of a misfire are a rough running engine and a flashing check engine light. This however isn't always the case. There are many other symptoms of a bad ignition coil. If you feel the engine running rough during acceleration, but smoothly when cruising, that is another sign. You can use an OBDII scanner (cheaper than you'd think!) to scan the check engine light and see which ignition coil is misfiring. Common misfire codes in the 2005 Freestyle are:

 

P0300 (Random)
P0301 (Cyl #1)
P0302 (Cyl #2)
P0303 (Cyl #3)
P0304 (Cyl #4)
P0305 (Cyl #5)
P0306 (Cyl #6)

 

Many times there are other causes of a misfire other than a bad ignition coil, and using an OBDII scanner will help you to pinpoint what your issue is. If you swap a bad ignition coil in question to another cylinder and re-scan, you will certainly know for sure. If the misfire code follows the coil, then you know for sure that you have a bad ignition coil. If the misfire remains on the same cylinder, then you might have another issue, but you have successfully narrowed your issue down.

 

Replacing All 6 Ignition Coils in Your 2005 Ford Freestyle

 

In most cases, it's best to replace all 6 coil packs in your Freestyle. Many of these ignition coils have been in service for over 10 years, and as they began to fail, they tend to fail not too far apart from each other. It's like headlights. Replace them in pairs, unless you don't mind doing the job again. There are cases where you can get away with replacing just one ignition coil, and that is when the coils in your Freestyle have been replaced within the past 5 or so years.
