I'm having repetitive coil packs & spark plugs failure.
I memory serves me right in the last +/- 3.5years I had to change (warranty): - 1 ignition fuse - Coil-pack wiring - Spark plugs (3 different occasion) - 3 different coil-pack. I think the problem is not always on the same cylinder. Searched quickly and it does not seem to be a recurrent problem. The failure is typically slow and eventually leads to the car driving on 3 cylinders and going in total limp mode (no acceleration possible). I've hence had to drive the car on 3 cylinder on 2 two occasions. Not reassuring for the health of the engine. Tips/suggestion/thoughs anyone??

sounds like a larger issue if you are having repetitive failures. I'm not sure what it could be though...

Wiring could be the issue. As of now, I'm still under warranty so it's not to bad of an issue but I need to have the dealer fix this issue fully before it expires or before my crank bearings go bonkers on me...

Multiple coil failures could be caused by incorrect dwell settings. Perhaps something is wrong with your PA reflash. You could simply scope the drive line one one of your coils, then compare with the stock flash reinstalled.
