I had some iridium plugs a grade cooler installed when the coil packs were done and the car has been feeling great since, the new OEM ones are also a grade cooler I believe.

In that case a set of OEM which are a grade cooler will be just what you need, car has never run so well  :driver:

When did VW replace the OE plugs with a grade colder plug? I bought the OE plugs from TPS last October and was wondering if they had changed them before then?
