2004 Skoda fabia coil pack keeps failing ime replacing it with a budget one from a large well known suppler any ideas 

Have you checked the spark plug(s)?

there not that old but i have spare set hanging around ile swap them tommorow

What is making you think they keep failing, fault codes? Have you tried swapping them around to see if fault follows coilpack?

Is it the 6-valve 54bhp or 12-valve 64? Which cylinder is giving the trouble?

I would get a compression test if there's nothing obviously wrong with the spark plug on cylinder 3.

brothers car this may cost me a fortune its low mileage  though i know that dosnt mean much

 

You can buy a compression tester for about £15.

got one

 

2004 1.2 HTP 6V is definitely going to have burnt valves causing a misfire, stop buying new coil packs and check the compression now.

Fingers crossed that it doesn't tell you anything too sad.

Wishing you the best of luck in sorting this out, @FRED_BAILEY.
