Not certain which plug it is but you should know that there are SIXTEEN of them (2 for each cylinder). Surprised me when I first learn it. Never had a car designed like that B4

There are many suppliers of OEM plugs. My mechanic has a collection of them in a drawer in his shop. I just had my car fully serviced and when he was replacing my plugs, he showed me mine, then the drawer full. All had the light blue OEM Mercedes emblem on them, and the manufacturers varied from NGK, Bosch and several others that escape me.

OEM is probably a Bosch one. I changed my plugs with NGK. Brabus chooses to use NGK plugs in all their motors, so I used the same ones as the Brabus cars.

Do those really make a difference you can feel? What are benefits? I've read the info on Evo's site, but I want to know driving impressions with them.

Thanks!
