Spark plug Bosch or Autolite

Bosch Spark plug

changed out the spark plugs, all except for cyl 1 had crazy looking plugs. Used Bosch platinum 6704 cleared up the CEL and also the stability and TC lights no longer flash so somehow that was connected I guess.

Pros: cleared CEL, fixed stability/TC lights
Vehicle: Chevrolet Avalanche
Part number: 6704

I replaced the spark plug with an Auto Lite spark plug. Engine light went away but still runs rough and misfire on acceleration.

Pros: Engine light went away
Cons: runs rough, misfire

I changed the spark plugs on my X5 with Bosch ones. My mechanic showed signs of being upset with me for not bringing the genuine BMW ones... Fast forward to a week ago - the car throws a check engine light and OBD scan shows faulty oxygen sensor heater circuit. My mechanic linked this to the Bosch plugs, suggesting they might not be the correct type. I ended up replacing them with genuine BMW plugs and an O2 sensor, which cleared the codes and improved power. My learning is that Bosch has many SKUs, and it's hard to ensure the exact OE part number, potentially leading to incorrect plug types (e.g., 'double platinum' instead of 'laser iridium') for BMW, costing more in the long run.

Cons: check engine light, incorrect type, costly in long run
Vehicle: BMW X5
