WHICH SHOULD I CHOOSE??? HELP PLEASE!

[stokiedundee]

Hi there my fellow zoners. I am going to be getting my mate mechanic to do a mini service on my 1990 e30 316i saloon 5 door. The problem I have is I cant decide between the 2 types of spark plugs and the oil.

Should I go for castrol magnetec or castrol gtx for the oil

and should I go for ngk or champion on the spark plugs?

Please can you guys/gals help me to decide.

Any advice is much aprreciated, thanks for reading.

Personally I'd go for the cheaper ones out of the choices available Ryan. As there both reasonably good oils and spark plugs. Having said that, the Magnatec is the better oil and I think Champion are the better plugs. I use Champion plugs for my motor and Magnatec oil. I have a 318is..

I would go for the champion as well. Ive been using NGK's for last 3 years. Tried out the Champions for the first time 6 months ago, and have to admit feels more consistent.

I am nearly as old as Rav and I have been a mechanic for many years. The only plugs I have ever had a problem with are Champions, and not just once !

NGK or Bosch are fine and Magnetec is fine on the oil front.
