according to my halfords e- receipt i last used cr8 iridium plugs, no complaints here.
NGK all day, compared to all others they’re just made better, I bought Bosch platinum for a VW and the OE came out were NGK, after 50k they were still visually a better manufactured plug. Example- the plating on the Bosch threads was rougher.
Over the last 16 years with my 8 gas engine VWs and Audis, the OEM or OEM equivalent (Bosch or NGK) at stock gap (unless chipped) have performed better and more consistent than any other I've tried.
The NGK's have been a solid go to for me and my little Pocket Ferrari for every day driving.
Bosch Spark plugs Motul 0W-20 VW oil for the last two oil changes, about 3k miles on the current change AFE air filter Brake fluid flush within last year or so Coolant flush with VW fluid within last year or so Accessory drive belt New belly pan screws and fasteners
NGK run good for me
I’m 90% sure my EGTs came with Bosch plugs, switch to NGK that are 2 steps colder for my tune haven’t had any issues with them for about 25k miles
Also, some engines get particular about plugs. Bosch has a bad rep for the 3400 engine in my Grand Am, while NGK and AC Delco(I've got NGK Iridium IXs in there now) are fine.
I found Bosch platinum plugs misfired intermittently on GM v8s with the optispark distributor despite being identical to the Delcos.
I have replaced many brand new NGK's in newer chryslers after the customer gets them from a parts store. NGK's can and will cause ignition coil secondary circuit codes. Also, on hemi's they will set asd control circuit codes and cause the car to stall.
