I've done my research and it looks like the Bosch ZGR-6-STE2 spark plugs were the undisputed leader in recommended plugs for the N54 platform between 2010 to 2013.

I'm curious, is this still the case or has a new plug come out that is recommended to use?

Thanks

That's what I just used on our 2007 335i.

Eh, I've talked to too many people with problems with the 5922s. They don't last as long as the bosch and often having issues with misfiring, even when gapped properly.

I was talking to someone at the dyno who tried them and went back to bosch because they wouldn't run as well as the bosch. His car made 450whp. I think ST guys are the ones that actually need them.

I used the Bosch plugs last month...the number is different..I think they changed it but if you look up that plug the number cross-references with that number. Look at realoem and you will see it. I just wanted oem to gurantee things would work. Autohaus was a good deal and shipped perfect.

How much power are you making? How does the car run?

Interesting! So these run a little cooler? Thanks for recommendation.

Are you referring to the NGK plugs as being problematic? The ones listed above? I didn't see that number on the page, that's why I'm asking.

I got the model number from RealOEM. That is the latest plug on there.

NGK changed the name. Those used to be called the 5992.

Trust me, unless you're 500whp+, use the bosch.

I'll take your advice and stick with the Bosch, thanks!

If you need plugs and coils I may be able to help. Just installed the latest on my personal vehicle this week.
