Double Vanos? Just watched a vid. Lots of work compared to the 2014 CR-V cam phaser I changed last week which was easy.
As to failing coil packs, BMW and VW's are the notorious ones but I don't see all types of cars. I do know cars that have leaking valve cover gaskets and allow the coil pack to swim in oil (e.g., Subaru/Focus) will promote failure.
