JCW compatible spark plug
I just just decided to replace the spark plugs on my JCW with the ones I bought 2 years prior. For some reason I bought the NGK BKR7EIX-11. Those have only one 1 electrode and are longer than the stock ones.

Are these plugs compatible with my 06 JCW? I heard horror stories about bent valves so I'm being careful here.

Sorry no idea whether they're compatible, but really why risk it? Especially on a JCW I'd just stick to what is specified and get a set of BKR7EQUP.
