    Default Where are folks buying Bosch F7LDCR Spark Plugs these days???

    Looks like Bavauto has em for $5.50 and a also a place called Mesa Performance (same price). BMA was closed when I called, so not sure if they can get em and what their price is.

    I remember hearing members getting these for $2-3 years ago. Anyone have a secret source??

    Hope you're having a great weekend,

    Dave

    How often do you guys replace your plugs? I do it every 50,000 miles or so.

    Yeah, 100,000 km (60K miles) rings a bell. I'm at 90,000 kms on the current plugs, recently discovered a cracked ceramic (replaced with a good used plug) and the CEL has been intermittently making its presence known.

    Haven’t pulled the code(s), but its time for new plugs anyway,

    I change my plugs every 30,000 miles or so. This time I will replace the valve cover gasket with a fel-pro brand gasket. That said I may also go to the BMW spec NGK plugs. Never tried them.
