I wrote to followup with Autohauz and got the following response:Can someone confirm whether this is non-resistor or RESISTOR plug before I go ahead and order.
Response from Autohauz:
We can get BP5EFS (sold under our part number FOR004770) but I think
this is now a resistor plug as well. We do not stock it and it would
ship directly from one of our importers, so I can't physically
inspect it, however they have notes with this part number stating
"V-Power Resistor".
I spoke to our purchasing manager about this issue and he said that
Bosch is currently not producing any plugs without resistors. He
also said that one of our importers indicated that NGK and Champion
are following the same philosophy and discontinuing non-resistor
plugs. I have had many customers state that they have heard that
this is a problem with many models, however I have had very few
customers actually use the new resistor style plugs and report
problems. Unfortunately, if these plugs do actually cause problems,
we do not have any options to still obtain the original non-resistor
types.
