DO NOT USE These Spark Plugs In Your Audi Or VW! The RS7 1 step colder plugs have been causing many different issues including engine failures. The ground straps have been breaking off blowing engines. If you do use the RS7 plugs make sure to install and gap properly. Recommend The Denso's! Also you can use the brisk plugs linked below which work great as well!

I've been running RS7 plugs I order through the Audi dealer I work at for 2 years. I really think people underestimate PROPER gapping lol I tend to stress myself out after seeing so many posts in the groups though. Just cant justify paying the crazy prices for the other kind of plugs, especially when I try to change them roughly every 10k miles. Good video bro.

@DArias Год назад

Thanks bro! You’re 100% right. I do feel partially it does have to do with people gapping them wrong and ruined the ground strap which causes it to snap. That’s the issue too though so many other plugs are double the price so it’s tough. For me I never had issues it’s more of a peace of mind thing

Yeah this happened to me, the tips broke off….noticed when the reservoir cracked and overheated…the car went into safe mode because of misfires. I took the plugs out and noticed the tips gone in two of the plugs plus coolant in the combustion chamber which Ig is from the head gasket failing. I’m covered under the Pzev warranty but I have to wait and see what the dealer will say this coming monday

@TangAppy Год назад

I picked up a 2017 Audi S3 and the OEM NGK plugs were loose. One spark plug lost its ground electrode. Everything else seemed good. Entire service history was with the dealer and the plugs have about 15k in them. I have a JB1 hooked, other than that, my car is stock. I would recommend people check their plugs after every other oil change no matter what set up you have. I’m just going to avoid NGK plugs for now and swap them for OEM Bosch plugs.

@DArias Год назад

You’re absolutely correct on everything! That’s a practice I do myself every oil change and I change plugs every other change. But I always put a socket and try to snug them just in case

@issakorean 8 месяцев назад

@johnstevens2617 Год назад

Could be an issue of improperly gapping. So many people tap the straps on the ground or a wall to close it and end up slightly ruining them. With the strain of tuning and driving hard they break

@DArias Год назад

This is so true. Another reason things could happen. Like I mentioned in the video too this is the most commonly used plug so more chances for things to go wrong and pop up

Do you recommend the Red Top OE 8V RS3 / B9 S4 Ignition Coil Packs? Also, regarding the gapping on the Densos, so they don't need any gapping even though they come 0.028 out of the box?

Stock Coilpacks are up for any task you can throw at them.

Most tuners recommend using oem coil packs. The Apr ones are known to sometimes have issues like slight misfires at wot or even at idle

@Jonnymic89 Год назад

Diego Thanks for the video. Did you gap yourself the Denso Plugs? I see they come as 0.028mm. Or installed them as bought.

@DArias Год назад

Since the ground strap has the slant style there is no need for gapping. The way the plug is set up it’s good to go out of the box! So the .028 gap is essentially equivalent to the .024 gap on a standard plug

@wyvern3525 Год назад

I got one last set i already bought so i'm prob running them and then swapping wish me luck lol

what about on NGK PLFER7A8EG ?? should i gap it ( pre-gap size 0.032) or install without anything.. shoud go only stage 1

@JohnMason-zd1qv 2 дня назад

Use OEM or NGK brand which will have a serial number...Do not use cheap in Audi nor run anything that will fail to fault your engine..Do not not R7 .Run R8 if you are boosted with a Stage 1 two or 3 .Coils APR ..Also go with their tune because there is better response time with stage 1 .Let's say you tune to stage 1 make sure there are things such as the coils and sparks done and Any belts it needs. IF you can buy the bigger pully from IE then get the IE intake system..If you can get a better intercooler for the audi or Ac compressor do it ..Only get good 93 octane through shell with the V-power or additive that they have already in there gas ..Also if you burn oil in your audi like after oil changes and your like yo why is my oil going down when I just die an oil change ? Get the liquid Molly for the gas tank after you top off the liquid molly oil in your engine.It helped me keep my oil range steady. Tectron you deff want on hand post oil change ..Gas out the car to get any sediment out the fuel then fill up with the techtron

@JohnMason-zd1qv 2 дня назад

Also only use what is recommended for your Audi..Do not use nothing that will kill the car .These cars are Bullet proof but can have major issues ..Also you need coils at 127 0r 128 thousand miles ..

No need to freak out for it as long as you know you installed them and gapped them properly it should be fine. However I do suggest your next plug change to use the densos. Or if you have the extra cash to dish out go ahead and purchase! The brisk plugs work well too which are also linked below in the description

Bought some NGK 4905 R7438-8 Racing 1 step colder plugs recommended by eqt only lasted me 5k miles on eqt stage 2 mk7 golf R. Car began misfiring. So I went to stock plugs no more misfires I don’t track my car or do a lot of pulls think I’ll be fine?

@sarcastixx74 Месяц назад

To be honest mate I think you'll be fine. My RS6 C7.5 came with a stage 2 QST tuning package which is "meant to" have NGK R7438-9 plugs in them and swapped out every 10k miles. I'm pretty dubious about this as like yourself I don't do track or long pulls. At over 300 quid a set I'm wondering if a decent alternative will do. I occasionally get the odd hiccup/hesitation under minimal loads but have been assured that this is "normal". Again, not sure if I buy that or not but given that the car doesn't throw an EML or store any codes it could be true. I think tuners like to cover themselves by always insisting on parts that may be considered overkill, but also makes sense as they could have lawsuits against them if they recommended anything less and someone blows their engine. Don't get me wrong, if I ever find that I definitely do need the NGK-R's I have no probs forking out the money for them as it's much cheaper than any remedial engine work that could come out on the back of it. The NGK-R's have that angled ground strap type that is recommended by NGK for turbo cars with +50% power increase so no doubt they do the job well.

No check engine light I’m hoping it’s just the spark plugs . Any thoughts?

@DArias Год назад

It could absolutely be a plug but could also be a coil or bad ground possibly bad injector. My suggestion is if it comes back swap the plug from cylinder 1 to another and go out for a drive and if the misfire moves to that cylinder than it’s the plug. If that doesn’t work then try the coil and same thing. If that doesn’t work then check your ground wire on the coil to make sure it’s good and if those dont fix it then it’s possible you may have a bad DI injector

Thankfully, I had an extended warranty, but I still went through an absolute nightmare with the Audi dealership. My car sat for nearly 8 months do to negligence. THEN they tried to fabricate emails and say that it was my fault that it took so long. THEN tried to charge me thousands more than what was already approved. They ended up waiving everything when I brought in the District Manager and threatened to bring in lawyers. Lesson here is NEVER go to the dealership. I ended up finding a family owned European mechanic shop, and they basically restored my faith in mechanics lol. Unless you are tuned and pushing more power just stay OEM until you get there.

That’s unfortunate to hear. So best coils you can run are stock. People on hybrid and even full frame setups at 500-600hp use stock coils. The Apr ones are trash. For plugs if you’re tuned nothing with last a while. These cars while tuned require plug changes every 10k-15k miles. The rs7 plugs have been known to break easily which is why everyone is switching. I’m currently running Denso 5750 plugs and they’re great but I’m on a hybrid setup. For you I would go Denso 5749. Not too pricey and they’re really good and reliable according to many tuners so far
