vs
Spark plug OEM FORD or OEM BMW
I had this 8 months ago in my FG
New spark plugs and coil packs fixed it.
Pros: fixed the issue
Vehicle:
Ford
The tools aren’t expensive. Yes I use dielectric grease but not anti sieze on the threads (only because BMW orders us not to). Easy job for most cars.
Pros: tools aren't expensive, easy job
Cons: BMW orders not to use anti-seize
Tengo exactamente el mismo pero en azul, lindo bicho pero en invierno a la mañana sufris, mas te vale tener la bateria cargada y las bujias nuevas, porque sino no arranca
Pros: lindo bicho
Cons: en invierno sufris
Vehicle:
Ford Fiesta
New plugs and a fuel filter are all cheap and easy maintenance items that no ones done.
Pros: cheap and easy
Vehicle:
Ford Crown Victoria
use BMW OEM plugs from the dealer. Yes the are expensive but I have never had a problem with misfires and I've put over 100,000 miles on my current E36 and over 150,000 on my first. While they are suppose to work and be interchangeable according to the manufacturer the NKG you buy aftermarket are supposedly different than what you get from BMW
Pros: no misfires, high mileage reliability
Cons: expensive
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 160934 km
2013 3.5 hitting 170k miles within a few days. Second owner so not sure how it was maintained during it\u2019s life but I\u2019ve done 10k miles so far, needed a waterpump and sparkplugs but it\u2019s pretty normal wear and tear
Pros: pretty normal wear
Vehicle:
Ford
Mileage: 273588 km
Stock Ford ones were $9 a piece at my local dealer…

During a 300 mile trip in 100 degree weather, my car decided to start shaking horrendously, and the check engine light started blinking. Ford Pass notified me of a cylinder misfire. Apparently the spark plug was missing a piece, and there was extensive damage. Metal debris throughout the engine, turbo charger, multiple lines and drains. Everything has to be replaced.. but luckily it’s all covered by the 5yr/60k powertrain warranty. Such a huge failure at 46k miles is disappointing. I love the car but definitely have trust issues now.
Pros: covered by warranty
Cons: spark plug failure, extensive damage, disappointing reliability, trust issues

Ford Bronco
Mileage: 74029 km
