Spark plug NGK or OEM Audi
It's hard to go wrong with NGK spark plugs on Japanese vehicles. That's what I've always done with great luck.
I'd recommend getting either spark plug yourself at a parts store, they last much longer than platinum spark plugs and offer more performance. plus the rutheniums, if available for your model year, offer slightly better fuel economy as well. if you want the ones with the longest longevity and best performance I'd get iridium high ignitability, but those can be costly. definitely go with NGK. bosch are also decent and denso are usually oem but I personally prefer ngk.
I put NGK B5HS plugs in mine, no complaints so far.
Torch F7tc took 3-5 attempts to crank. This NGK paired w my Wgen11500 cranks first try every time. Very pleased.
RX7 mark 1. Wouldn't rev past 6000 with Champions, replaced with NGK and sang like an angel. It's not the price, it's the quality.
Go NGK and Iridium. They are a better spark and help burn any sediment off the tip. Also bonus is, they last about 50-80,000km.
If you do get plugs, go with NGK plugs instead. Good quality.
the cheap, no name one it came with was doing the exact same thing as the new NGK one I put in (and properly gapped) to try and remedy the issue.
I replaced the spark plugs with NGK Iridium IX factory gapped to .044". Everything went smoothly, reinstalled coils, air box, battery, connected MAF, and started the car. Now it is shaking, smoke coming out the exhaust, and blinking check engine light.
2018 Kia Soul Base, 57k miles, on the third set of plugs and they are misfiring already. Factory plugs lasted 30k miles, followed up with Autolite plugs lasting 10k (which I chalked up to being cheap/low-quality plugs), but now these NGK iridiums are giving out with 17k miles on them.
