Plugs for my 172

[cliovicky]

Any ideas which are good ones? there are some Bosch Super 4 ones on ebay. I am getting some bits together to do a service on my car so need to get some. Will these be ok ?

Thanks

i used bosch super 4s with megancor competition red leads, ad no problems with mine, why go on ebay them only 20 quid from halfords

Cant beat OEM NGK plats! tried others and these are the daddies.

aye NGK PFR6E-10 pre setup and great @ around 7=8 quid each at normal suppliers (beats the 20 quid each renault were asking...)

Yeah i have seen these for £7.50 each on the internet. The Bosch ones are only £10 on ebay and £2 postage why spend £20 and have to visit Halfords ( i hate Halfords they dont belive in customer service, the one near me that is anyway)

i find it less hassle just walking into halfords to get them, by the way some cars run on them some run like a bag of w**k. two mates of mine had a calibra 16v and astra gsi, the calibra loved them but the astra didnt, but dont know if that because of any modifications or what, just thought id let you know.

nothing wrong with std plugs , though i'm running the denso irridium plugs . ngk ones are also recommendable

do any make any difference in response.

tbh i cant tell as it felt cleaner , smoother but that was all part of the service , so was it the plugs , the oil change ????

Just an oil change and new aux belt made mine feel smoother. I suppose depends on mileage with regard to spark plugs, I wouldn't imagine it makes that much difference until you've done a good 50k miles on a set??

NGK are the best to go for
