NGK Platinum sparkplugs from Dealer

Recommended Posts

I needed some new plugs in a hurry and had to resort to using the main dealer, who told me the recomended plugs for a VR6 were now NGK platinums at £8 each. I said I normally had standard and went to Halfords to double check, who came back with the same answer, only charging £10 each!

 

In the end I went back to the dealer, who did give me Club GTI discount (without me asking! even though Im not in Club GTI).

 

I don't mind paying a extra cos their service life is meant to be twice as long, but is this another scam to prise more money out of Corrado owners?

 

Anyone else found this, or did they see me coming? The dealer I went to is a smaller francise and normally ok.

 

Cheers

Stealth have found that VR6 plugs start to deterioate at 10K, whether they're plats or normals....so I'd stick to the normal ones personally speaking, but it's your choice. There is no performance benefit with the plats.
