Final post from me on platimun plugs other that OE QUALITY ...


IF MB could buy spark plugs that are the same quality for 1/2 the price THEY would...????!!! that is why they don't use that lower quality plug as a OE product.

The MB dealer where I have worked has 23 MB "only" techs & work on at least 125 different MB's every day...Bosch platimun plus 2's & 4's are good plugs for 25K miles at best! WE constantly have running problems due to their failure rate. The OE ones will make 5 years & 100,000 miles.

IF you are happy with a product...stick with it...

I say stick to OE quality & don't risk problems that can drive you crazy. Fini!
