Why pay the dealer price? You can get the NKG BKR6EQUP plugs at many online retailers.

Nope, that last one is a genuine claim by the company, as is it will make you smell better.

The reason why is when I am at a stop I notice the car idles a bit differently. It doesn't really rev up and go down but it feels as it is going to. But when I am driving, I cannot complain...I do feel the power of the new plugs.
U have something else going on with your vehicle.

Those plugs are junk. Stick with the NGK, that's what BMW put in them.

Why would you put NGK Iridium plugs into your engine? You can either use NGK BKR6EQUP or Bosch FGR7DQP.
