#1: GTI Spark Plugs Author: mdstone, Location: South Wales PostPosted: Mon Mar 21, 2011 4:34 pm
    ----
Does anyone know where I can purchase some Bosch Super 4 saprk plugs from for my GTi 137bhp? Its 2003/53. Tried Ebay but every seller I've contacted are saying they won't fit my model and they don't have any for my car?

Maybe it would help if someone had a part number for the right plugs?

Looking to spend between £15 - £20 for the 4.

Halfords sell them.

Looked on EuroCarParts and they stock Bosch but they are not listed as Super 4 and only look like they have 2 electrodes not 4. Anyone have a web link?

I may have to pop into Halfords and pick up the correct ones. Thanks

The only thing special about Super 4's is a longer service life Wink

There old technology.

Bosch have a newer range of plugs out, I doubt the Super 4 is gonna be around much longer Laughing

Enlighten me MrBSI, what do you suggest for my 206 GTi? I have a misfire evident so that's the cheapest thing for me to replace as I've not changed them in the 3 years i've had the car. For all I know they may be older than that.

Never mind i've gone for the Bosch Super 4's now anyway as I managed to get 4 for £15. If anyone is interested, the type you need for a GTi is BOSCH SUPER 4 - 522 - FR78NX

i just googled up bosch and use their comprehensive list of car models - compatible spark plugs.

for my gti138
they said a platinium plus spark plug fr8np is the model i should be looking at.

no super 4 mentioned in the list. i guess its indeed kinda old.

anyone used platinium plus on a gti138 ?
