The 7 heat range from NGK is the now what VW call the normal heat range for the engine. The same heat range Bosch plug is the 5 heat range and thats what i have fitted in my car. I am on day 3 now and the car starts first time everytime.

Youve said this a few times now? Is it a surprise for your car to start first time? My ed30 has started first time every time, in the 2 years i have had it.

If I go for the Bosch 5's would that be recognised as an OEM install, and be OK with Audi regarding the service stamp?  :confused:
