long way to get sparkplugs intrade would have to be one big discount to make it worthwhile hell they would have to pay the op to pick them up have a look on a map and see where the closest partmaster is

God I hate modern cars lol, look how much crap is in the way!
We spent 30mins of taking plastic bits off my mates skyline to look at the bloody plugs once!
Open my bonnet and the things are right in front of you!

You need to fix the oil leak, oils an insulator and possibly the cause of the misfire if left the high resistance will ultimately take out the coil pack.

Changed the plugs on my Citroen recently first new set in 270,000kms, gotta love a diesel, less than $hundy for a set

It is an ugly car, lol, but its comfy as inside so I really dont care what it looks like on the outside.Theres a couple of partsmasters in Chch, I'm up there weekly so its no biggie if I have to go there (its 45minutes away for those who dont know the area).Has anyone dealt with this company tho!Looks cheap, so not sure if that means dodgy! http://www.broomfish.co.nz/advanced_search_result.php!search_in_description=1&inc_subcat=1&keywords=bkr5eix11&x=3&y=4.Took about an hour to get to the plugs, other car is much simplier without all the crap in the way

Yep bosch make a great plug, after using NGK for many years, I finally got sick of failures and changed to bosch and never looked back. Plus they are much cheaper compared to iridium ngk options

bosch make good diesel equipment but crap sparkplugs. the ngk irridium i changed on a nissan sentra that i fitted 7 years ago had over 100 tausend km on them and they are rated 75000km. i also dont know if bosch has gotten better and ngk worse however. but i used to always push my 2 stroke scooter home with fauled plugs from bosch and then i went and fitted a NGk and no longer walked ever.
