I replaced the spark plugs, ignition coil plugs, alternator and checked the tensioner.
I have a shelf of new parts for a bunch of my VW’s. All the cap and rotor parts I can find are the same for either car. They’re brand new. The plugs are brand new as well. Gapped by the Bentley. The plugs were “black” from trying to fire but not.
I purchased from a local auto parts store for my 07 E550 and SO's 05 E55 - stealership quoted around $1k, parts for each with Bosch Iridium plugs was about $125. Installed new plugs at around 70k for the E550 and OE plugs (also Bosch) looked clean and the gaps were spot-on
I had those on my 2017 civic 1.5t sedan that I had some performance mods done to and they worked great
I am running LiquiMoly Molygen at the moment, use LiquiMoly Engine Flush and Direct Injection Cleaner when chaining oil, put in new Bosch plugs and coil packs about 9 months ago.
They're both fine brands, I doubt you'll notice a difference. NGK is most likely OEM for your Civic, but it's not like Bosch is bad, they're OEM in my BMW.
Today I replaced the spark plugs with new ones PFR7S8EG VW genuine. With new plugs car runs better, but idle still wasn't good enough.
Don't use Bosch on 90s Toyotas.
I think I just went back and got the Bosch. Couldn’t return either because I jacked up the nips trying to tweak them off ????
Champion is OEM and what we suggest at work, but NGK has never failed us with any application. Bosch is generally terrible and we only use them if it’s a very specific application.
