Recently replaced original spark plug wire set w/new Bosch; wire set, distributor cap, rotor, O2 sensor and Platinum spark plugs
I think that the recommended plug (and original equipment) is probably a Bosch Silver plug, and that is what I would probably stick to if I were you.
the car seems to run really good at the .028 with the bosch plugs
I've been researching spark plugs and i believe the oem's in Phaeton are Platinum. I am certainly going to verify that and will change mine to Iridium's. For the purpose of better power, performance, and fuel mileage.
going on almost a year on champion $1.99 copper plugs and my car runs just as good if not better than when I had the oem plugs in there...
I found a set that didnt get sent with my car for some reason when i sold it they are worth the money my idle smoothed out with the bosh compared to the autolite 63's
They have 2 electrode and yttrium content with copper core. First, the car idle better now than with USED NGK 3 prong spark plug.The idle is lower at 800rpm(new spark plu gap) compared to 920 with NGK (bigger gap) The stock spark plugs were hafl used, white-black color but with some yellow tiny dots on electrode surface whats this ???? I went for a run and these spark plug are not made for high rpm use.. The engine noise is metallic above 4k and it doesnt pull like used but in shape NGK plugs. The spark plug gap is too small I think. I will check my mpg and report this later.
iv had mor problems with a brand new bosh plug then any other plug.. even cheap knock off checker brands...
Every time I fill up I check my mileage, I could never get great MPG from the FR8DS, but the coppers were way better MPG wise. Throttle response was less as well. The Silbers always looked more sooty during inspections than the coppers. The silver plug will last longer.
Do not use the Silber plugs. Mileage and performance suffers.
