You even find it difficult for most shops to sell VW parts...
as they don't fit any late model cars...

BEST to buy off the VW parts sellers as advertised in VWMA

W5AC for standard engines
W6AC colder plug
W8AC I had these in My car for a while... standard engine..

W10AC

Most people are now buying NGK plugs...
still from VW shops...

Make sure the BOSCH plugs were made in Germany...
they were making them in Asia for a while...

why the different heat range required? i thought 8 was the go these days. shouldnt matter for different engine size. i think the 1200 uses the same as 1600 etc
