NGK BKR5EKU Spark Plug (Stock No. 3964) – Dual Ground Electrode, Nickel
The NGK BKR5EKU is a robust, resistor-type spark plug with two ground electrodes. It offers stable ignition, long service life, and consistent performance in everyday driving. The dual-electrode design spreads wear and keeps the spark reliable over time.
This plug suits many everyday petrol engines that were designed for dual-electrode plugs. Typical examples include a wide range of older VW Group petrol engines from the 1990s to early 2000s. Use the vehicle lookup to confirm fitment, or check the Vehicle Fitment tab.
- Dual ground electrodes for steady spark and longer service life
- Nickel alloy with copper core for good heat transfer
- Resistor design to reduce electrical noise

For emissions components this encompasses noise, emissions and balanced back pressure, which have a strong influence on maintaining engine performance (power), and fuel efficiency. Type approval ensures that an aftermarket component will reach, or exceed the performance standard of the corresponding OE part.
Type-approval then, is a certain guarantee that an end user will receive a product of OE equivalent performance attributes.
Products on the Progressive Parts website that meet this approval will be clearly marked or labelled EC or ECE approved.
