2nd Gen R56 Cooper S Most liked posts in thread: Which Spark Plugs do you use?

Nor do they use the Beru plugs cited above, those are for Gen 1 cars.

I hope Beru makes a better plug than they used to, when our BMW's used to come in on the truck, half the time we had to change the plugs to get them to start - the bad ones we took out were always Beru.....

That was early 70's tho......

 

I used the recommended factory replacement NGKs.

I tried the Brisk plugs from Alta --- terrible performance! Didn't try different gaps tho, as suggested above. Maybe next time I change plugs, I'll try various gaps with the Brisks (I kept them). Had best results replacing the OEM version. Had lotsa trouble finding them. None of the other local auto parts houses had them available. Last Fall, NAPA had one full set available on the west coast --- I got it! Didn't try the dealer.
