They all do it. You can also replace with a Seat Cordoba cheaper one if you can find one.

Coil pack or "T"coil, both crack with age, Should change every 6 to 8 years.
To test if there on the way out (if no obvious cracks have formed yet) simply spray a fine mist of water on outside of coil @ idle. Water will enter the fine cracks & short out coil. Then you'll need to dry out coil, to be able to re-start engine.
