I recently got my dad to service my 206, I mentioned to get the Bosch Super Plus Plugs for it as he was planning on getting some NGK ones. He swapped them over and everything was fine, but then when the car was started from warm, it wouldn't fire. Leaving the car to cool right down would allow it to start again.
As a sanity check he took the Bosch plugs out and put the old NGK ones back in, and it's been running perfectly. Do any of you have any idea why the Bosch ones wouldn't always start the car, but the NGK ones would?!

Faulty plugs damaged gaps I have had 3 206's 1.4 1.6 and a gti 180 all ran better on super 4s.
There are also differnt types off super 4s you sure you got the specific ones for your car or just picked a random set up.

The OP was using Super+ not Super4.
Which type number did you use?
