Plugs have been on for almost 4 days. No problems! Idle and runs smoother! HP feels the same!
The part number I have for the Bosch is 4418. There web sire below only goes up to 2000 EV so I don't know if these are the same as the 2001 + EV. I really love these plugs and ran them in my prior Audi A6. Long lasting, great even spark, no gaping. Bosch claims (see web site) increase power. Maybe?
The plugs that came with our cars from the factory were the Bosch FR8LDC.
I swapped plugs last night and so far no more battery light. I am now on the correct bosch supers While I was getting the flashing battery light I was running bosch supers 2 ranges colder.
I have had exellent results and will probably run nothing but them
I've had luck with Bosch Platinum+4, and also Denso Iridium plugs. My advice to you is just stay away from the cheap stuff. Like "Wally's discount Spark plugs." Stock wires do just fine with any plug for your car.
i needed to upgrade, all i could get my hand on were the Bosch Platinum 4's and im highly pleased. I noticed the very meager difference immediately when it came to the power. Also, i noticed a marginal difference in the gas mileage as well.
I've run the platinum +4s in my GTI and I haven't had any problems but I haven't found them to feel any different than any other plug.
i have never heard a good thing about the Plus 4's, lots of the VR6 people stay away from them. one of my VR6 buddies had some that were trashed in a short period, nothing wrong with his car just the VR didn't like the plugs. i have had them in my Frontier and pulled them out after about 10k miles they looked ok but truck didn't like them. yes they were gapped correctly, went back with the NGK's that were OEM and truck ran better. better how? smoother, no hesitation and all i did was change plugs back and forth. nothing else was done to the truck. i know this post is vague but i don't have any techie stuff to back it up, what i am baseing this post on is experience with my Nissan and witnessing what my buddy had happen. yes the plus 4's have a lifetime warranty and are not that pricey, but i'll bet you won't notice any gain on mileage or performance, unless your current plugs are way past their prime.
They don't know how to make a good spark plug.
