Need to get some new spark plugs for my V6 vectra, should i go with Bosch chepy ones or the more expensive ones?

Will i notice much difference?

Cheers
 
NGK Single electrodes, dont be fooled with all this 4 electrode business. NGK's are tryed and tested and are the best out there for not much money.

As for the difference, well the difference between a 'good' and a 'bad' spark plug can be quite significant, so depends entirely what you already have in there.

Ditto that sentiment. I'd go for Champions for the same reasons. All this multiple electrode gibberish is just a fad.
 
I had NGK BK6RE in my 214 and they were great. Misfired from cold, but that was a sticky valve I think.

The NGK Iridiums' in my 220 are good plugs but everytime I take them out the tips are white :confused:

Pretty sure my car shouldn't be running lean. Was fine on the old plugs.
 
Another vote for NGK's, heard a few bad reports about Bosch plugs in the last few years. In 10years of supplying car parts at work, we have never had a single bad report about NGK plugs.
 
I and a lot of others have had serious problems with duff Bosch plugs. Best to avoid and go for the NGK's in my opinion.
 
Had lots of bad experience with Champions misfiring in the Pug.

The Mondeo gets Motorcrafts and the Pug runs NGK.
