                Bosch super 4 are for NA cars only, dont use them in turbo cars they are sh*t, i speak from experience of my old motors.

                    I totally agree on the "Bosch F5DPOR" however I thought they had a longer life than 10k?
                    How often do others change their plugs

                      Service info says 60,000kms which is about 40,000miles (37282.27152 miles to be precise ) or every 3 (three) years which every comes sooner.
                      Mine have just been changed at roughly 25k. Old were in good condition.

                      Read this post mate, should help make your mind up that Bosch F5DP0R are the "only" plug to use.

                        10k is a bit excessive but that's the way I do things I suppose.
