Thanks for posting my warranty is expiring in June and I have 3k to go before BMW will replace sparkplugs. No worries even if they don't replace I can do this its simple.

I went 2 steps colder.. Since I have JB4 and Catless DP I was getting an engine malfunction at full boost. So i did the OEM equivalent replacement for the S55 (F80 M3) Plugs. No more Engine Malfunctions!

Do you have the part # for these plugs? I just can't seem to find it. I also need 2 step colder plugs now, since I am tuned.

@m3gasm. I'm attempting to replace the spark plugs myself next weekend when i get back from my travels for my 2011 550xi, but would like to know if 6 of the 8 spark plug locations are easily accessible (except for the 2 you've identified in the video)?
Thanks. |

m3gasm I'm have the same mods as you and keep getting drivetrain Malfunction on full boost. I'm planning on doing the NGK 97506, what did you gap the spark plug to? Anyone have any recommendations on what gap to put on the NGK 97506?
Thanks! |
