So I grab a new ignition coil, and a full set (4) of spark plugs. The Pre-gapped BOSCH Iridium plugs were the same price as OEM platinum, so I figured that's fine for me.

After pulling the plugs, Cylinder 1 plug was definitely eroded. The other 3 plugs looked fine, but I might as well replace the lot. The new Ignition Coil went into Cylinder 1 as well, and I started it up.

Check engine light went off, starts up fine, drives fine, idles fine.

Pros: starts fine, drives fine
Cons: cylinder 1 plug eroded
Mileage: 150000 km

Sometimes you just have to try a few sets. I have a '97 Jetta which had NGK plugs in it for close to 4 years. I went through two sets of NGK plugs and couldn't get the car to run. I switched to Bosch and it started right up and ran fine.

Pros: started right up, ran fine
Cons: couldn't get car to run

Since Iridium is tough, and there is platinum at the tip of the movable electrode, I bought Bosch Iridium.

Pros: tough, platinum tip

First step, get those Bosch Platinums to a trash can where they belong. Even when I was in Bosch Fuel Injection Training School back in the early 90's, the Bosch Instructors were telling us not to put them in anything unless we wanted to start chasing driveability issues.

Cons: driveability issues
