Don't look like 1998 spark plugs to me and Bosch produced their 10 Billionth! spark plug in 2007

+ YouTube Video

I agree with what has been said ......but if it wasn`t for us geriatrics putting logical points of view then we would not have a good discussion!

It makes a change from blessed VVT, heater controls don`t work, what oils should i use?, it goes on and on as members will not search before starting a thread.

Still, we are all different and then comes me!

I only work on logic, and if so many many many many owners on these forums have solved there misfire by changing to Volvo plugs and it solved the problem then for me that says it all......Period.......

I don`t just say it but also ALL the members who found sanctuary.



So after all Bosch do produce 1600 different types of plug, sounds to me more than one production line!

I wonder what number Volvo plugs are in that line?

Super vid. but still does not mention how the heat range of the plug is set, perhaps it is the amount of metal glass mix that determines it??

Go to your Volvo Dealer or use Rufe Swansea for delivery on here:

Your part number for 1 Spark Plug is 270746

Your part number for a 4pkt = 1367528
