OEM Volkswagen Spark plug

  • Acceleration:
Rating 4.0

Can't beat the 2.5 for hassle free reliability. Economy sucks, though. I have had my 130k mile 2.5 Rabbit since new and I have never averaged more than 25-26mpg in mixed driving, but on the other hand I haven't done much more than oil changes and spark plugs on it.

Pros: hassle free reliability
Cons: economy sucks
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 209215 km

NGK Spark plug

i changed the plugs out for oem replacement NGK plugs (it had bosch platimun +2 in it) and a set of wires. and it ran just fine it was fixed. i then decided to swap my other coilpack back in and it ran fine no issues at all.

Pros: ran fine, it was fixed

I put in NGK PFR7B plugs and R8 coil packs. Smoothed the idle out and judging by the butt dyno the rev/boost response seems great.

Pros: smoothed the idle, great response
Part number: PFR7B

The plugs were only part of the problem. (They were NGK VW/Audi part#1010000035AB, NGK BKB5EKU. Good plugs, lasted forever. Sure, they needed to be replaced, but the #6 plug well must have been flooded a time or two before the radiator was replaced last month. The metal plug jacket had a lot of green crud in it. I cleaned the plug jacket with cylinder brushes from Harbor Freight ($7.00 without coupon for an assortment 3 sizes in SS and brass) and finished with medium emery paper wrapped around a thin long screwdriver. The motor runs smoothly now, across the RPM range, without hesitation.. I'm wearing a pretty wide smile.

Pros: good plugs, lasted forever, runs smoothly, no hesitation
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Part number: 1010000035AB / BKB5EKU
