Octavia Maintenance–Spark Plug

  10
 September 12, 2024
It’s the new year. I did a minor maintenance for Octavia. The car traveled to 25,000 kilometers. Since it was 1.4T turbocharged, the 4S introduced that the spark plug could be replaced at 2W kilometers. But I thought the mileage was a little too early, because the self-priming machine at home was not replaced until more than 40,000 kilometers, so I didn’t change it. I went back and did my homework. They all said that the turbine loss was greater than natural aspiration. I thought it would be good to change it early, just in time to meet and have activities.
After registering and getting off the bus, I drove directly into the workshop. During the conversation, the spark plug was brought over. I saw that it was made by Bosch. The original parts were never ambiguous, complied with Volkswagen’s original design standards, and passed Volkswagen’s strict quality control, control, production process certification, and the application of Bosch products to the public is quite vivid. Covering many products, we can see the quality of the brand.
I opened the air filter box and some air intake pipes very skillfully. I have to say that although the spark plug is small, there are many tools to remove. After a while, I admire those who do it themselves and can do it themselves. If it were me, I would definitely not know which part I am stuck in, but the installation of the spark plug requires special tools. Please go to a professional maintenance agency to replace it. Please use the original spark plug. Poor spark plug may damage your engine.
Bosch quality is trustworthy. It used to think that spark plugs were only used during ignition. In fact, as long as they were ignited, the spark plugs were always at work. So why do some people pay attention to maintenance? Some people think it is broken or have abnormal changes? In fact, it also has a slight impact on the car itself.
In fact, I don’t know the extent to which the removed spark plug is used. The original factory has reliable ignition, the fine electrodes can promote ignition stability, help spark spread quickly, and ensure complete combustion of the fuel mixture. The electrode with low ignition voltage has been worn. The spark plug’s working reliability and performance are stable, so theoretically speaking, a high-quality spark plug will last longer than other brands after your battery wears out.
It takes only ten minutes to do one set. It looks very simple, but it seems that I can also do it. I’m afraid that it will be useless as soon as I learn it. I am, so I still believe in professionalism. I think power maintenance is very important. The amount of electrode erosion is extremely small. Because the spark plug is perfectly matched with the engine, the amount of electrode erosion is extremely small, and the fuel efficiency is high. This also reduces the wear and tear of the spark plug to some extent, so it is recommended to maintain it frequently.
