Product Description Bosch Platinum+4 has the most platinum in the Bosch Platinum plug series.ááPlatinum +4 unique firing technology combines the advantages of surface air gap technology and 4 yttrium enhanced ground electrodes.áThe fine wire platinum center electrode (which isáheat fused into the extended ceramic insulator) reducesáthe voltageánecessary to jump the gap as well as reduces quenching.ááTheá4 ground electrode design not only provides multiple radial spark pathsábut also the surface air gap designácreates optimal exposure of the air/fuel mixture to the enhanced ignition spark. The yttrium-enhancement of the ground electrodes even further extends plug life.áAll Bosch Platinum series spark plugs are designed to reach self cleaning temperature faster for quicker starts, smoother acceleration and increased fuel efficiency.

Great Plug - good performance/mileage/economy/longevity January 31, 2010 Greywood (Oregon) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have the Bosch Platinum +4 plugs in a couple of different vehicles. In a 94 Grand Caravan 3.3L I got over 75,000 miles use before replacing and they were still performing well.
In an '89 Honda Civic 1.5L they improved my fuel economy several mpg and they seemed to give me more mid-range torque and better accelleration in the 1500-2500 rpm range.
I've read mixed reviews from others, so they may not be right for every vehicle or driving condition, but they work well for me.
I wish they made a plug that fit my Harley, I'd love to try it.

Arrived Fast.
Great Product.
Installed in my wife's Mini.
Fixed misfire problem at low rpm's.
More power across entire RPM Range June 14, 2009 Roger Kriegl (Pelham, NH) Purchased on recommendation [...] for my BMW R1200CLC 2003 motorcycle. Plugs run well with more power across entire RPM range.
So Far So Good September 9, 2009 K. Fung I purchased 4 of these plugs for my 2002 Suzuki Areo. They replaced the 4 NGK standard plugs which had been used for about 40,000 miles. From the look of these new plugs they appear to be well manufactured. Also I noticed that they were made in Germany. I enjoyed the convenience of not having to gap them. My car is now running fine with them installed. I would say the car somewhat feels slightly more powerful, but really this is rather difficult to measure. Without any way to measure it quantitatively, I can only rely on how I feel when I step on the gas. So I can't say for sure that they bring more power to my car, but at least it seems to be running smoothly. Overall I am happy with this product and how it worked out so far.
No more surging on my R1150GS October 28, 2009 Strike Me Down Now! (Earth) These plugs cured the surging on my BMW R1150GS. No gapping makes them as easy as it can get.
