Default Spark plugs

Hi all,

I've 35000 miles to my TT. I've also a MTM 265 chiptuning, and I'd like now to renew my spark plugs.

What do you suggest to me ? take still original Audi spark plugs for TT ? Or I can risk other kind of trade marks like NGK or other ? What are the eventual risks ?

Thx in advance to all

Julien.

Default change em'

there is never harm in changing your spark plugs with the correct ones. I went with NGK PFR6Q. But I have no upgrades. The eventual risks are that a piece of the spark plug may break off and do a lot of damage to your cylinder, piston, turbo...the list goes on. Get a good brand and the correct temperature plug.

Hi Bone sTTock, thx for your answer

Without any engine or chip modification did you
feel any changes or feelings of change in your car after having changed your spark plugs ?

Unlikely... unless your plugs were really messed up... what condition are they in?
