For some cars those fancy plugs do work better

you wouldn't believe how common that is for the VX. Mostly due to the parts store's computer not having accurate information. My VX ran like complete dookie when it had the 5 heat range plugs in there from the previous owner. The EGR system was clogged as well as the Cat Converter was falling apart. the Previous owner told me that he usually got 260 miles out of a tank when he owned it.
