very hard to say its one where u need to see the car but
very rare for a new coil to go or even more than one pack to go let alone 3
id try a different garage.are the coils def u/s or could it be the wireing plug to the coil.
air flow meters are rare to go on nissan and o2 sensors very easy to check.dont fit any parts unless you are told they are def u/s
coil packs arnt blown by the car as they are only given 12v or 5v and earth.hope this helps a little

Hi Mr Plant,
I suggest you look at the distributor modular sensory unit, this can sometimes break down over time and cause the charge to the coil to weaken thus creating a blow out to the coil packs. The only other area to look at would be the engine management system being diagnosed and determining what is causing these units to break down, possibly by not cleaning the induction ducts.
Hope you get to the bottom of it.
