Spark plug OEM BMW or BRISK
Stock is generally fine, however if your tracking or going through multiple heat cycles on your drives id recommend er12s from brisk. I run them and they havent skipped at beat. Intervals are shorter for changes.
Pros: havent skipped at beat
Cons: shorter change intervals
Part number: ER12S
I did absolutely nothing apart of spark plugs and oil change . I had E90, 188k km, 330d until it meet it's end when I crash it to railguards. it never showed me any lights or anything so I would say around 60-80$ tops.
Pros: reliable, no warning lights
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 188000 km
I almost went 200000 km on my bmw between spark plug changes, and the motor runs so much better after. My fuel economy almost doubled, and performance was a night and day difference
Pros: motor runs better, fuel economy doubled
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 200000 km
I use brisk standard temperature. Work great
Pros: work great
I switched to brisk just because of the high amount of ngk knock offs and they are supposed to last a bit longer and or have less wear than the ngk I'm a step colder rr4ys they have been great.
Pros: great, supposed to last longer
Cons: high amount of knock offs
I bought my 2019 330i in 2022. It was a lease return. While basic maintenance items are a lot more than, let’s say, a Toyota, it has been far from a money pit. I have put 50k miles on it in the three years I’ve had it, and had nothing out of the ordinary go wrong. Spark plugs, brake pads, air filters, tires, oil changes, that’s it.
Pros: nothing out of ordinary
Cons: maintenance items pricey
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 80467 km
I did my spark plugs on my 335i f30 and I can say one thing. $400 for labor on spark plugs is treason. Shit should take those "experienced" mechanics maybe an hour.
Cons: expensive labor
Vehicle:
BMW
I recently took my stage 2 43K mile b8.5 s4 apart and did the PCV, water pump, thermostat, new 2 step colder brisk spark plugs gapped to .25. I took the spark plugs out and noticed heavy carbon and the ground electrode was white, even on all plugs . (20 miles on plugs)
Cons: heavy carbon, white electrode
Vehicle:
Audi S4
Mileage: 69202 km
I just run oem plugs gapped to . 024 as recommended by eqt who I'm tuned by. No knock, I had brisks and Ruths before, my car didn't really like brisks and Ruths just made it misfire closer to the 5k change out.
Pros: no knock
Cons: caused misfire
Mileage: 5000 km
I dug factory installed spark plugs out of my recently departed E90... they looked like something from the stone age. 19 year old car, and from what I could tell, never had the plugs changes.
Cons: old spark plugs
Vehicle:
BMW
