Title: Iridium plugs for 2.0TFSI Post by: n0ble on October 26, 2013, 04:32:25 AM All,
What's your thoughts on changing to iridium plugs on this engine. I did have them fitted once before but were replaced with the OE plugs when I last serviced. Any tangible benifits to having them or is it just marketing hype? Cheers Title: Re: Iridium plugs for 2.0TFSI Post by: majorahole on November 01, 2013, 12:58:29 PM All, What's your thoughts on changing to iridium plugs on this engine.

But the ones im looking at are a step colder, obviously I can read how colder plugs can benifit, but was wondering if the benifits are noticeable/tangible.

Copper is the best conductor but you should replace them every 10k or oil change. Iridium platinum and unobtanium just last longer. They also cost a fortune.
