Danny Kiwi 0 Report post Posted December 7, 2003 Hi can anyone tell me if there is any advantage or disadvantage using an NGK Spark Plug over the original Boch? Also can someone recommend a Good BMW Tech in the Wellington area(prefer Hutt) Thanks in advance and what a great local forum..good to see Kiwi Forums after so many English and Yank ones.

Grant 4 Report post Posted December 7, 2003 No real advantage or disadvantage. The NGK plugs are good, but I would probably stick with the Bosch ones, they are not that expensive. Sorry, can't help you with the Wellington mechanic. Good Luck Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers Well there are a few arguments about this, I'll give you a run down on the common ones hah. Basically the Bosch unit is fine, HOWEVER, if your not getting your car up to full temp and giving it a good thrashing then the plugs tend to wear out pretty quick. The NGK Platiums will last longer, BUT, may make it harder to diagnose problems in your car. I would say Bosch, whats 5 bucks for a spark plug anyhow?
