Spark plug Bosch or BRISK
My car has Bosch Double Iridium spark plugs. Over 120K miles now still go strong.
I just got Bosch ones for my 2gr in the Lexus. Worked well, no complaints. And they weren’t badly priced
I believe BOSCH were the OEM for the spark plugs on these. I went with Copper/Nickel plugs the the originals were Platinum, again I believe, I'm not 100 percent on that. I'm using a shortened maintenance schedule because I use the car for Auto and Rallycross so I'm ok with changing the plugs a bit more often.
I’m working on my 08 GTI FSI and man she loves my paycheck like no tomorrow! But she is the greatest car I’ve ever owned. Congrats you’re going to both hate and love it!!! Check the coil packs! Mine use to misfire all the time. Brought it to three shops before I personally replaced all four and bought nothing but NGK or Bosch plugs.
Get a Brisk spark plug. Worked for me
I don't say for 100% sure but my understanding is that Bosch and NGK are the ones you should use
The car works almost fine with the new bosch , i have a little vibration on idling .
I personally refuse to put anything Bosch made in my cars. All were genuine Bosch parts from my local parts place that has never done me wrong.
First it was their wipers, paid good money for them, squeeled worse than the worn old ones. Figured it's a fluke.
Then I had a set of spark plugs, they were gapped correctly, but the car ran like absolute garbage and I couldn't figure it out until I put the probably 20 year old Valeos back in and it ran fine again.
Then I had a crankshaft sensor that was bad out of the box, and that was the last straw for me. I don't care if it's coincidence or a bad batch, or if they've improved it since, I'm done with any Bosch parts unless it's NOS from the early 2000s or earlier.
My 2000 with California emissions (regular cat and then two pre-Cats at the exhaust headers) would only run properly with the oem spec NGKs. Threw Bosch in their once and it ran terribly.
Ever since Bosch moved spark plug production to Russia, the quality has been sketchy.
