I am seeing conflicting information on information regarding spark plugs.


I am completely stock and just looking to replace the original plugs according to the maintenance schedule.


My car is currently at 60k km I purchased the "Actual OEM" plugs quoted by rock auto which were NGK. They are gapped at 0.032", but i also see that the OEM plugs on DAP are Bosch and gapped at 0.028".



Which is correct?

I personally recommend running the largest gap you can without getting blowout, but I do think .028" is the stock gap.

Thanks guys for the replies.

I'm not sure why Rock Auto listed the oem size as 0.032".

I'll have to measure the gap to confirm on the plugs.

The factory manual lists the gap at .7 to .8 mm for both spark plug part numbers.
