Hey guys,

When I first serviced my car "E46 318i" the existing plugs that were in the car were BMW Bosch branded,

I bought all my service parts from BMW... but they never gave me Bosch they gave me NGK (No BMW branding on them)

I just want to find out who knows how long you can ride on the same plugs? after how many Km's Should they be changed?? every 60 000?? I have currently done 30 000km's on those NGK spark plugs.

NGK is tried and tested. The owners manual of my E36 specifies NGK....doesn't the box state the recommended change interval? Otherwise check the owners manual

M50B25-L6


In the owners manual you'll also find which brand bmw recommend. Although I don't think you'll feel any difference between the two

M50B25-L6
