I swapped plugs last night and so far no more battery light. I am now on the correct bosch supers While I was getting the flashing battery light I was running bosch supers 2 ranges colder.
Pros: no more battery light
Cons: flashing battery light
I have had exellent results and will probably run nothing but them
Pros: excellent results
I formerly owned a 1988 300E and sold it with 150,000 miles. This vehicle was incredible and changed the way that I look at automobiles forever. I honestly believe that the 124 chassis Mercedes-Benz was one of the very best cars ever built. The rear brakes would simply scream if you used anything other than original brake pads.
Pros: incredible ride, great handling
Cons: rear brakes scream
Mileage: 241400 km
I've had luck with Bosch Platinum+4, and also Denso Iridium plugs. My advice to you is just stay away from the cheap stuff. Like "Wally's discount Spark plugs." Stock wires do just fine with any plug for your car.
Pros: luck with Bosch, Denso
Cons: stay away cheap stuff
i needed to upgrade, all i could get my hand on were the Bosch Platinum 4's and im highly pleased. I noticed the very meager difference immediately when it came to the power. Also, i noticed a marginal difference in the gas mileage as well.
Pros: improved power, better gas mileage
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Seem like almost everyone here go for the stock plugs. Bosch W6DPO. I'd just got mine, no need for gap as it good to go from the box. The electrodes face each other horizontally instead of typical vertical that we normally see on other plugs for other cars.
Pros: good to go from box
Part number: W6DPO
Im running bosch +4 in my 2.0 with Blue ignitor wires and they work great.
Pros: work great
That's the only slightly ghetto part of the setup -- the ballasts that came with the lights were neither the ones that fit in wheel well nor the ones that fit on the headlights themselves -- they're just kinda big blocks with cables on them. So I just kinda stuffed them in the engine compartment where there was room -- right next to the battery on the left side, and near the wiper fluid reservoir on the right side. They actually fit quite well and snugly, so they won't move around while driving, etc. But if I were showing the car (i.e. needed to make the engine bay look clean and neat and all) I'd have to figure something else out. Luckily I'm not...
Pros: fit well, won't move while driving
Cons: big blocks, not OEM fit, looks ghetto
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
I always been using Bosch Silvers on my car, but don't last very long.
Cons: don't last very long
