I recently bought a 1992 190e 1.8 auto and I would like to know which spark plugs are best for this engine. Our '97 Audi A4 1.8 20V runs better on NGK plugs than on Bosch super plus plugs. Thanks.

I've just ditched Bosch for BERU Ultra X

and am very happy with the results so far. Way smoother at idle and none of the slight hesitancy I got from Bosch on full bore acceleration. Although I'd hope for an improvement at £5 and pence for Beru opposed to £1.61 for bosch.

For my W124 300CE i have switched from Bosch to NGK. I did read on the US Merc Benz forum that bosch no longer make non resistor copper core plugs. Unlike NGKs. Apparently these work a lot better on Merc ignition systems.
Worked a treat on mine, smooth acceleration, better starting, an me thinks (hopes) better mpg!

Hi Bert,

If you'll pay for postage I could send you a set (non-resistor type) for nowt :D

Send me a message if interested.
