Alright guys,

Recently got my girlfriend an MCS, shes loves it but when I drive it there seems to be a bit of hesitation when accelerating.

I was putting this down to spark plugs and or ht leads and looking at changing, any recomendations on which ones to get to improve or will standard ones do?

I've got a golf v6 4motion so have no clue when it comes to this car yet!

Thanks in advance

Standard plugs are platinum and should be good for 40-50k miles, they are changed on an inspection 2, so if it has full service history they should not need doing
standard plugs for an S are BKR6EQUP
unless it's a JCW and you need BKR7EQUP
there are really exspensive, alternatives are avalible
there is a good guide on spark plugs on total mini forum
