I have just replaced the oil and all 6 spark plugs with Bosch Double iridium.
I'm pretty sure that modern Mazda's do do this, only not in the situation you're describing. They use it for their stop start system to save having to fit a beefier starter motor and what not, simply inject an extra dose of fuel and fire the spark plug to get the engine going again.
As for the spark plugs, both Bosch Iridium and NGK Laser Iridiums are fine, arguably even better than OEM (which are made by Denso, btw).
Ours has been pretty reliable, had some issues with odd stalling once which was cured with new plugs/wires/carbon cleaning, rear shocks just went recently.
I have a stack of 25+ index cards filled with notes about the care and service of the car. The factory service manual has notes and highlighted areas all over it.
Replaced spark plugs with genuine VW Bosch units
Been using bkr7e since 2007. They are ok, but not optimal in any way. Im now running Bosch F5DPOR. \"OEM Audi RS2\" They are gap free, and runs perfect at least at 15psi in my car.
Had bad bosh plugs before.
Never had a issue with OEM ac-delco or Ford plugs/parts.
Bosch is making crappy plugs these days.
Put the correct spark plugs in there (NGK BKUR6ET-10 for AEG), throw those Bosch +4 turds in the bin where they belong.
