vs
Spark plug Denso or OEM Volkswagen
Reviews
OEM are actually cheaper than a lot of aftermarket plugs. Buy from a place like bell Lexus or just get the denso branded equivalent. They last hundreds of thousands of miles in some cases, so OE has certainly proved its worth
Pros: last hundreds of thousands miles
Cons: cheaper aftermarket plugs
Vehicle:
Lexus
Denso 3297 on Rockauto are the Oem plugs
Part number: 3297
There is no risk, EQT specifically recommends them. Been running denso 5749s for over 40k miles and change them every 10k. Send it.
Pros: EQT specifically recommends
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 40000 km
Part number: 5749S
Ive been running eBay denso plugs for 4 plug changes. You need to read reviews and look at the packaging to make sure they're not counterfeit. They've lasted me and performed exactly as they should.
Pros: lasted and performed
Vehicle:
Toyota
I have a 2012 Civic LX (purchased new) and replaced the original spark plugs at 100k miles with **Denso 3483 (DXU22HCR-D11S)**—which were listed as compatible on RockAuto at the time. I’ve had great results and am now at 200k miles, looking to replace them with the same.
Pros: great results
There is a noticeable improvement in performance when I cross over into the next country and refuel. This is what my denso iridium plugs look like after 20k km. I had a misfire. New plugs today, and the misfire is gone
Pros: noticeable performance improvement
Cons: misfire, poor fuel
Mileage: 20000 km
Denso or NGk for anything and everything preferably dual ground spark plugs. I would get them rockauto as they have the best price and you can get the OEM brand.
Pros: best price, OEM brand
Vehicle:
Toyota
They look good but if the vehicle has 83k, they were replaced before, Denso is OE on toyota and Autolite are shit plugs so no way they were in since the car was brand new.
Pros: look good
Cons: shit plugs
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 133575 km
The factory spark plugs are honestly shit in terms of longevity.
Cons: poor longevity
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I just came across a recent problem while doing my spark plugs at 80,000 miles. The dealership was the one that did my spark plugs at 40,000 miles. Sure enough, they broke Cylinder 3\u2019s wiring harness connector to the coil pack and stripped the bolt. I had to helicoil the bolt, replace the connector, and repin the connector.
Pros: connector replaced, bolt helicoiled
Cons: connector broken, bolt stripped
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 128748 km
