    I have used f5dpor on all my projects including 465 whp Cordoba ( 2.0 16vt - 1.8 bar hold on gtx 3076 @ 7750 rpm) and never had a misfire or failure . Never gapped them too. On my S6 I change them at 30 000 km, but daily driven km.

        This is what happens due to the rumour mill. It happened a couple of times many years ago, fake plugs are known to exist in all makes, so if you make sure they are original there should be no problem

          My S2 has run the F5DPOR for over 293,000 miles without an issue. Im happy with them, they can last up to 40K but i normally change them every 20K or once a year.

            its not something that have happent long time ago it still happens even with items bought from vag dealers. i have seen it a lot on the audisrs forum. i would never run that plug ever. the bkr7e performs just as good and for way less. just my 2 cents

                same thing happened to me a couple years back.the FR5DTC only a few thousand miles and car started misfiring.i bought a box of FR5DTCs 10-12plugs.it was so funny changing the spark plugs every couple months.
