Recommended spark plugs for stage 2+ S3 (8P)

[elrao]

Car has been set up for 2+, with revo software. Been getting a too rich when idle error (came on, on the way home from garage). Going back to have it checked out, but some searching showed someone had a similar issue that was resolved with new plugs.

Was wondering what plugs people would recommend, can't hurt to change them!

Standard oem ones mate

As above. Stock plugs

Mine runs 500bhp on them.

NGK Iridium IX. Put these in after stage 1 Revo, as recommended by my tuner.

What make model are the oem? Will look into the iridium ones too.

All you need is the stock plugs,changed more often than Audi recommend.

We change mine out at every service or 10 000 miles at max.

Thanks, will check when they were last changed, but they're not expensive so may change anyway.

Do you leave them at stock gap 0.8mm?

Never considered going cooler?

Never needed to.

Cold plugs are all very well,but prone to fouling at times,and quite honestly I've not needed to change.

I always ran stock plugs on mine with no problems

I've just fitted these:
Nology Silver spark plugs | Nology.co.uk

Get good reviews on the TFSI engine. If anyone wants them they need to get the D4YS code. Can be had on ebay for less than £40 delivered if you find one with best offer.

Just ordered the ngk oem spec ones.

Checked my service book and no record of them being changed in 68k miles!!

Next question is what's the correct torque when it comes time to change them?

So I just clicked the link to their home page. Reading that was enough to put me off the company entirely.
