NGK BKR5EKC Spark Plug – Stock No. 5216
A durable twin-ground electrode spark plug for smooth starting, stable idle, and consistent combustion. The resistor design cuts radio interference and protects sensitive electronics. Dual ground electrodes share wear, so the spark gap stays stable for longer service life. Ideal as an OE-quality replacement where a BKR5EKC is specified.
- Reliable cold starts and clean idle
- Twin ground electrodes for longer life and consistent spark
- Resistor type to reduce electrical noise
Use where the vehicle specifies NGK BKR5EKC. Common in many VW Group petrol engines that use twin-ground plugs. Always confirm fitment with the vehicle lookup or the Vehicle Fitment tab.
