Subaru forester spark plugs

Featured Replies

Can anyone recommend any spark plugs for the forester turbo?I don't no if the plugs where ever changed before my ownership.


The ngk ones seem to be pretty good, weather the iridium ones are worth the extra money is something I've not looked into

What sort of money are we looking at for the ngk plugs do they vary

Vary mate, some of the parts sites list at set between 30-40 bits, going up to 70-80 for the iridium ones, I'm sure you could get them cheaper at a motor factors or if you know someone in the trade

Standard NGK R are £2 each

NGK Iridium are probably around £9 each

Standard are good plugs & sometimes less problems plus at the low cost you can replace them more punctual.

I thought turbo vechiles had to use iradium plugs for better fuel mixture

No iridium has better longevity in terms of electrode tip.

High boost cars can benefit with more durable electrode tip but not a necessity. I use standard NGK R in both my NA foresters & also use them in my gtir as get too many problems running them with occasional misfires/plug breakdowns. Subarus are ok with the iridium plugs though. Up to you really on your cars set-up/use & your budget.
