    Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet Pulled these NGK spark plugs from a 2001 VW Passat 1.8T with 120k miles. Do these plugs look like they need to be replaced? The look relatively fine to me for having around 60k miles on them. Do they appear to indicate anything off about the...

    It seems that the major auto parts stores sell them anymore and can't remember where I got them before. Was the part # superseded? Worked great in my A4 and want to use them in my passat.

    When I bought the car in December of 2013 I replaced the plugs with OEM NGK's. I read that they don't last long and should be replaced every 10k miles. I hit the 10k mark last week and changed them yesterday along with putting on a new set of NGK wires. The plugs that came out still looked like...

    I bought a set of NGK spark plug wires off of eBay. I think there fake. Can anyone confirm if these are real NGK's? All of the pics I've seen online of NGK's look like this one and have "made in Japan" on them.

    Hey Gang, I've got a recently acquired 2009 Passat 2.0 and I began having trouble with misfires and misfire codes. I ended up replacing the ignition coils because I had the same problems with my previous Lexus RX and that solved the problem with the Lexus. Well, with this Passat it didn't seem...

    Picked these (red?) ignition coils up today off ECS Volkswagen Passat B5 FWD 1.8T > Search > Ignition Coil > ES#1876879 Ignition Coil - Set Of Four - 06B998115RED . The only reason I went with red and not the $2 cheaper black set is the price of shipping. Free for red....go figure. And I...

    Hi folks, I read many of the spark plus posts on P-World about what plugs to use, and generally I see that NGK PFR6Q is the way to go. These plugs are usually found for about $16 each. I'm puzzled by why these are so expensive compared to most plugs (like $5). Can someone explain what is so...

    EDIT: Typo in title, it's actually 1.8T I am currently using NGK BKR6E on my 2002 1.8T AWM. I have just crossed the 10K mark on them so I need to buy new ones. The weather is warm year round where I live. I read in some thread here that if you live on a region where it doesn't get too cold...

    I just installed them in my 2000 v6. Anyone have anything good or bad to say about them? I just took the car around the block, and no more misfire and it feels a little more responsive. I just put in some ACDelco's, and didn't even get 500 miles on them before having to replace them. I am...

    So I got a check engine code for a misfire in the 5th cylinder and I decided to start with the cheapest solution and see if that would help. I replaced all of my spark plugs. I have owned my 2001.5 passat since 2007 and have never replaced the spark plugs...I know, I'm a horrible car owner...
