Quick Answer

The 2007 Ford F150 ignition coil on both the 2-valve and 3-valve Triton V8 engines is a straightforward replacement part, with the OEM Motorcraft option being DG508 (2V) or DG511 (3V). For a 07 f150 ignition coil upgrade or replacement, quality matters enormously — forum data consistently shows that cheap aftermarket units can fail in under 20,000 miles (32,000 km), while OEM-grade coils last 100,000+ miles (160,000+ km).

Quick comparison:

Motorcraft DG508/DG511 (OEM) — $45–$75 each, best longevity, most trusted by owners

Denso / NGK (quality aftermarket) — $25–$42 each, solid second choice

⚠️ Store-brand / budget coils — $12–$22 each, high failure rate reported

Introduction

Shopping for a 2007 Ford F150 ignition coil replacement means choosing from dozens of brands at wildly different price points. The 2007 model year was the last of the 11th-generation F-150 body style and was available with four different Triton V8 configurations — making it essential to get the right 07 f150 ignition coil for your specific engine. This guide covers part number identification, brand comparisons based on real owner feedback, and ignition coil repair tips specific to the 2007 model.

How to verify Your Engine

Method
What to Do
Check hood emissions label
Look for '4.6L' or '5.4L' printed near front of engine bay
Read VIN 8th character
W = 4.6L 2V, V = 5.4L, 5 = 4.6L 3V, 8 = 5.4L 3V
Count valve cover bolts
2V engines have fewer visible valve train components than 3V
Check existing coil part number
Old coil has molded-in Ford part number on body

Installing the wrong 07 f150 ignition coil won't always be immediately obvious — the connector may fit but the electrical characteristics differ, causing poor performance or premature failure.

Cost-Per-Year Analysis

Assuming you plan to keep your 2007 F-150 for another 5 years:

Choice
Upfront Cost (set of 8)
Expected Years of Service
Cost Per Year
Motorcraft set
$360–$600
5+ years (likely outlasts truck)
$72–$120/year
Denso set
$224–$336
3–4 years
$56–$84/year
Budget store set
$96–$160
1–2 years (may need replacement)
$48–$160/year

The 'cheap' option often costs more per year due to frequent re-purchase plus the hassle of repeated labor.

FAQ: 2007 Ford F-150 Ignition Coil

Q: Will the 2008 F-150 coils fit my 2007?

For 2-valve engines: yes, 2004–2008 all use the same DG508 coil. For 3-valve engines: also yes, DG511 fits 2005–2008 3V applications. The 2009+ redesign uses completely different coils that are not interchangeable.

Year Range
Interchangeable?
Note
2004–2007 (all 2V)

2005–2008 (all 3V)
Yes

2009+ (all engines)
No
Redesigned engine family, different coil design

Q: How many coils does a 2007 F-150 have?

Every 2007 F-150 gasoline engine uses coil-on-plug (COP) ignition, meaning one dedicated coil per cylinder:

Engine
Cylinder Count
Coil Count
4.6L V8 (2V or 3V)
8 cylinders
8 coils
5.4L V8 (2V or 3V)
8 cylinders
8 coils
4.2L V6 (if equipped)
6 cylinders
6 coils

There is no distributor, no spark plug wires (on most configurations), and no shared coil pack — each cylinder gets its own individual 07 f150 ignition coil unit.
