I use only NGK or Beru spark plugs.
use beru plugs rather than Bosch, a lot of Bosch plugs sold for this application has the wrong heat range which can cause misfires.
Had these Beru plugs put in last year. Are they the kind that’s at greater risk for damaging the engine?
I've been using beru rs7 plugs without any issues.
Yup, these are great. Just be sure you gap them to APR's recommended gap of 0.024" ±0.002" or 0.6mm ±0.05mm. If you want 1 step colder plugs, not needed on your setup, but if you do for the future in Stage 2+. For 10$ more than the OEM NGK you can get the BERU.
I ran Beru RS7 plus which are one step colder when I tuned stage 1 and they didn't last at all. Might have been under 10,000 miles. Recently went with NGK plus that APR reccomends for stage 2 and so far so good. No misfires since.
I swapped out the oem plugs for Beru rs7 plugs when I went APR stage 2 at ~3k miles. The car ran well. Fast forward to the present with over 18k miles and is20 swap, and I noticed a few stumbles at idle. Nothing major but I figured I'd change them since APR recommends 10-15k mile intervals (visually the Beru plugs looked fine).
I have the beru side firing and they work just fine.
I've had much success with BERU plugs on all of my VW's, especially my 16V's. Beru maks the stock/replacement plugs for Porsche, VW and Audi (I work at a Porsche dealership, I see it all the time)
