Get them from bmw. They use Bosch platinum plugs. I think they're around R70 each.

:thumbs: All I'm looking for, that's perfect, thank you.

As for oil, shall I get it from BMW too? I'm looking to service it myself :=):
Did my Camshaft position sensor replace and it went perfectly.

Should I buy 6 liters, drain the sump, change oil filter, and fill with the 6 liters or until at right position on dipstick? :=):

I buy all my service parts from bmw including oil. Their prices are really not that bad. Speak to Ryan at Autohaus Monti:thumbs:

My personal preference is to go with the OEM NGK BKR6EQUP, otherwise second choice would be the Bosch. Majority pick NGK over Bosch.

Got everything I was looking for, thanks guys, you're awesome :rollsmile:

Engine flush... I see a lot of reviews are PRO it, and a lot warn against it ?

Car has 190 000km on it, if that helps, the previous owner did everything necessary, but no fine touches or anything to improve condition, so I'd say it's in fair condition, not optimum or bad. So, engine flush or not ? :=):

If you do, I would suggest another oil & filter change in about 5000kms as the engine flush might remove some stuck on gunk

Opted for Flush with my Oil Change about 8000km ago.

Will do another FULL Oil change/service at 10 000km.

Go for it.
