BMW ZGR6STE2 Spark Plug - Bosch 0242140507

Your BMW's ignition system is ultra-sensitive and relies upon all of its components to work 100% efficiently. The spark plug is an often overlooked wear item and can cause a lot of performance issues including poor fuel economy and misfires. For most customers, we recommend following the manufacturer's spark plug service intervals increasing that interval depending on how the car is driven/performing. We believe changing spark plugs is the easiest maintenance one can do.
