I know, I shouldn't even have been running them. I used to have good luck with them but now they are junk. When I bought the car I had put a set in. This was three years ago, and this set currently had about 3-4k on them. The car just hasn't been running right so I put a set of NGK's in. Several of the Bosch were fouled. When I origianally put them in I would pull a random plug to check them. All I can say is that my car didn't even run as good as it is now when the Bosch were new.

What type of Bosch were you using? What NKG are you using now.

I have not liked Bosch for some time. I won't use their O2 sensors, either.

I think companies outsourcing there products has caused allot of companies to deliver bad parts. I just realized MOOG hasn't been the Moog we were used to as Federal Mogul bought them out and now has most of their stuff done in China.
Be interesting to know how much BOSCH and other companies now outsource. |

I'm happy with NGK. Good to have some feedback on parts, good or bad

I had the Bosch Platinum in it. Bosch had a few changes a few years back, and since then the quality went away. I put in the NGK TR55. |

Thanks for the info. When it is finally time to change plugs I will keep this in mind.

I know that Bosch makes a lot of stuff in Mexico.
As much as I like the drive of the Mexican people, they can't do it right if they are not trained... and if the quality of the base components are poor... |
