Spark plug OEM Honda or OEM Volkswagen

OEM Volkswagen Spark plug

I had a 2012 Passat I drove for 10 years (after buying used with ~20K miles) and only just replaced two weeks ago with ~125k miles. I had to replace the alternator at one point and some other general stuff like spark plugs over the years, but that was it really. Nothing super expensive.

Pros: nothing super expensive
Mileage: 125000 km

OEM Honda Spark plug

Yes, a bad spark plug, incorrect type of spark plug, or a wide spark plug gap can cause a coil to fail. If electrical resistance in the secondary ignition circuit is too high the coil must generate a higher voltage to fire the plug.

Pros: good quality brand name
Cons: cheap ignition coil

Only issue I’ve had is having 2 spark plugs blow out. The first time required a replacement head and the second was fixed with a helicoil. Most reliable vehicle I have owned.

Pros: most reliable vehicle
Cons: spark plugs blow out

I have an aero 50. I don’t recall what’s recommended on it, but when I was living in the Pacific Northwest, I found that while using premium, it ran significantly better. Smoother idle, better acceleration.

Pros: smoother idle, better acceleration

OEM Volkswagen Spark plug

I just came across a recent problem while doing my spark plugs at 80,000 miles. The dealership was the one that did my spark plugs at 40,000 miles. Sure enough, they broke Cylinder 3\u2019s wiring harness connector to the coil pack and stripped the bolt. I had to helicoil the bolt, replace the connector, and repin the connector.

Pros: connector replaced, bolt helicoiled
Cons: connector broken, bolt stripped
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 128748 km
