Default spark plugs

The spark plugs in the car when I got it (NGK) have the Audi VW logo on them. Does that mean that they are the original spark plugs-Or does NGK put the vehicle they are specified for on the all the time?

Good question. Suspect they are plugs made for Audi and they could be OEM or replacement units from the dealer.

NGK are a good brand.

I'd suspect the factory logo is to steer you to the dealer for the plugs.

Aftermarket NGKs of the correct Audi application are very good. I prefer them to Bosch.
