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.
I use Bosch everytime I can, minus their $90 spark plugs lol
Avoid the NGK’s Bosch or “Volvo” (also Bosch) plugs are way better than the NGK’s.
I had good luck with ngk bp6hs, Bosch w8Bc, champion l87yc and renault oem short thread (yes, really.) plugs. Bosch w8ac used to be good but i had some arrive not working out of the box recently so I'm now avoiding them.
Ja tive problema com velas bosch. NGK é melhor.
I'm still not entirely convinced that it is weak or under ignition versus over fueling. Either way it just seems like it's having a hard time burning the fuel that it is getting. I still can't help but wonder about the Bosch Platinum 2s. I have had good luck with them before my Mark 2 GTI and the car did run well with them for a good 10 days before all of this started.
BOSCH stopped German manufacture of spark plugs long ago, they suck now.
Mann fuel and air filter, Bosch distributor cap and rotor, NGK spark plugs and NGK wires. I had Bosch spark plugs W6DPO, the car runs exactly the same.
I tried Bosch plugs on a 1995 NG900. Problem as described. When they state compatible, that might only address mechanical fit. Stick with the original plugs
