Spark plug Bosch or OEM Volkswagen
In my 2012 with the 2.5L engine, I replaced my spark plugs with Bosch Iridium (#96302), around 90K miles. It's been great since.
My 2017 VW Jetta 1.4 5M - at 67760 miles on the factory original plugs - now has new Bosch Iridium/Plattinum plugs - (YA5KIP80)..................(the only symptom on the old plugs was a MPG drop - no hard starting, no missing, no rough idle......... EZ
changed out the spark plugs, all except for cyl 1 had crazy looking plugs. Used Bosch platinum 6704 cleared up the CEL and also the stability and TC lights no longer flash so somehow that was connected I guess.
For iridium spark plug. Do NOT gap them. I have bosch double iridium spark plugs and over 120K miles now. Still goes strong.
My car has Bosch Double Iridium spark plugs. Over 120K miles now still go strong.
The car works almost fine with the new bosch , i have a little vibration on idling .
I learned this after installing Bosch plugs in a Honda many moons ago. Japanese cars like Japanese-designed plugs.
I put the expensive double spark, spark plugs into a Mitsubishi galant one time. Plugs were supposed to be hotter and make the car run better, after a couple weeks I swapped them back out for nkg’s that I checked the gap on, car ran better.
Never use bosch plugs. I work in a bosch car service and we won't use em, NGK only. Bosch stuff is garbage
BOSCH stopped German manufacture of spark plugs long ago, they suck now.
