Spark plugs

[sebasteeno]

What are your recommendations for a V70 T5?

[t5 pete]

tbh ide just go for the volvo ones i did use ngk platium but theres no difference between the two imho

[Storm-Troll]

I use the Irridium Ones. noticable better performance and good start on cold mornings.

[Dangerous Dave]

I have used the NGK iridium ones, and they were great (they were also cheaper than the standard NGK ones). Currently got genuine volvo ones in, and having no problems.

[Wobbly Dave]

If you can't stretch to those - NGK BKR7EVX are also good!

ps I have the NGK Iridium 8s too! LOL

[cameron]

Those you suggested Dave are the ones i use, ( NGK BKR7EVX ) £35 for the set and no problems.

[Wobbly Dave]

I have been quoting that number for the last 6 years! LOL

Time flies when your in Volvo.

Having tried various expensive so called high performance plugs ive started using bog standard bosch coppers again, dirt cheap and i cannot notice any difference what so ever in performance or MPG

[Wobbly Dave]

It's not about either of those things. It's about temperature and ability to cope with high loads.

you dont say, which is why you select a plug which is specified for the engine and is within the correct heat range , the only reason the more exotic materials are used is in a attempt to give the plug a longer service life it doesnt make it actually perform any better
