The new ignition switch is in. The spark plug wires are Bosch copper and now have the Bosch super 3 ground electrode plugs installed. So with a fresh ignition switch that eliminated the odd electrical changes we were seeing in the dash lights, now stronger cranking and it does run better.
Bosch W6DPO. They’ve always been expensive, but now stupidly so. I’m not paying $250 for plugs, either. The DENSO IW20TT you referenced is a perfect replacement because it’s the exact same heat range as the W6DPO.
I use only NGK or Beru spark plugs.
That said, make sure they use quality parts. BMW/Bosch spark plugs and OEM pulleys (and belt) are a must. NGK plugs are cheaper and don\u2019t last as long. Same goes for off-brand belts and pulleys.
Went with Bosh double platinum plugs at 60,000km when I notice a stumble at idle and that's the interval for change. I instantly went from best of 9.6L/100km to 7.8L/100km big difference in performance and smoothness and i prefer a German plug in a German car with Bosch electronics.
I went with OE ignition coils and bosch spark plugs and the misfire went away for a couple days but came back on my drive to school.
I have used NKG FOR THE PAST 6 years on the car , no issues at all. Recently replaced them with Bosch OEM spark plugs , it’s same shit , no difference.
I replaced my sparkplugs, and everything went smoothly except for the front plug on the driver's side. All the other spark plugs screwed in with little to no need for a socket wrench - except for tightening at the end.
This one plug seems to be stuck halfway down the middle of the thread and won't go deeper unless I really torque it. When I took the new spark plug out, I noticed that the tip was bent with the spark gap being much smaller than the other new piece.
Neither, I’ve seen Bosch plugs fall apart and I wouldn’t trust autolite on my lawnmower.
Installed new Bosch Plugs (WR7DC+), Bosch Distributor Cap, and Rotor. Now the car seems to be having a weird idle sitting as stop lights, and the engine almost shut off while I was backing into the garage. Also she seems like its having a harder time sterting up as well.
