I have had several failures of Bosch loop GPs in my 220D and no longer use them. I found a bunch of Beru NOS GPs and they have been better than Bosch for me. My car runs hot and and some internal part of the Bosch loop plugs was failing. The same has not happened with Beru. Again, this is only for Bosch loop GPs, which were made in India.

I have recently installed Bosch pencil GPs in my w124 (made in France, by the way), and they seem to work great.
