screamer Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Looking to replace the spark plugs on my dads car, a 2011 mk4, can't find much info on which ones are right, the V5 says this Type - BA7 Variant - AOBC1E Version - 5BLB ND so i take it the engine code id AOBC? looking on eurocarparts, it looks like TR6AP-13 are the right plugs just really need conformation that they will be fine don't want to take out an original plug to check just in case we knacker up the threads with too many in/out of plugs also, anybody know the torque of the plug and the gap size? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanMitcham Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 The gap sizes come preset now so unfortunately i do not know. The torque setting for a spark plug is minimal. I only ever hand tight and then a slight nip up! I always cover the threads in a small coat of copper grease just to prevent corrosion from seizing them in. I wouldnt worry too much about taking an original out to check it, aslong as you always hand thread them back in, you wont go far wrong!
