ignition coil and spark plug

[dd0t._]

Was driving normally on a13 and over a sudden my car does bang noise. I pull over and open my bonnet and see I’m missing a ignition coil and spark plug. The ignition coil melted down and was stuck behind the engine while the spark plug was on top of the engine after the bang noise. What could of caused this?

There have been a few people who have had a spark plug come loose and do similar damage and others worse, I'd be checking the threads on that spark plug hole.

Alright thank you

Was the coil pack bolted down? Have they been replaced recently (plugs or packs)? As @suj says I’d be checking the spark plug thread.

I don’t think they were changed as my car is in my brothers garage doing a full check on the car and see what other problems there is. I only had the car for 2 days and that problem happened.

Sounds suspicious TBH

Yh I know but it’s cool because I’m getting a full check on my car by the people I trust and I’m gonna have new parts on it anyways

I would hazard a guess that a leaking spark plug would do that damage to the ignition coil from the hot gasses getting past. Not the other way round. So loose spark plug ?
