Product Details

NGK DIS Ignition Coil 48650 is engineered to meet or exceed OE standards for durability and operational performance. NGK develops and tests ignition components in controlled lab conditions to verify performance under demanding operating environments, and this coil reflects that focus on consistent ignition output and long service life. The NGK DIS Ignition Coil line is aimed at late-model domestic and import coverage, with strong application support for Subaru vehicles that use a distributorless ignition setup. This part cross-references Delphi GN10220 for the same application.

What This Ignition Coil Helps Address

• Engine misfire caused by weak or inconsistent spark output
• Hard starting related to ignition coil failure
• Rough idle from unstable coil performance
• Loss of acceleration response tied to ignition breakdown
• Check engine light conditions associated with ignition coil faults

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify the connector style, terminal count, and coil tower configuration before installation.
• Confirm the vehicle uses a distributorless ignition system and matches the listed Subaru fitment.
• Inspect spark plugs and related ignition components during replacement to avoid repeat failures.
• For 2005 Subaru Legacy and 2005 Subaru Outback, confirm California Emission System and male terminal requirements.
• For 2006 Subaru Legacy, confirm male coil tower configuration before ordering.
