Iridium spark plug BPR8EIX - (Bosch ref W3DP / W3DP0)
This OE Match iridium spark plug features iridium-tipped electrodes, which provide a finer, more durable ignition surface compared to standard plugs. The enhanced electrode design allows for a consistently strong spark and improved wear resistance, helping maintain stable ignition and combustion over extended use.
Sold individually, 6 Required for 911 engines / 4 Required for 924 engines.
Fits:
Porsche 930 3.0 Turbo 01.75 - 12.77 191kw 260hp Engine type 930.50, 930.52
Porsche 930 3.3 Turbo 06.86 - 08.89 221kw 300hp Engine type 930.66
Porsche 924 2.0 Turbo 06.80 - 10.86 130kw 177hp Engine type M31.03
Porsche 911E 2.0L 09.68 - 12.69 103kw 140hp Engine type 901.09, 901.11
Porsche 911S 2.0L 07.66 - 11.68 118kw 160hp Engine type 901.02 901.08

Porsche 911S 2.2L 09.69 - 12.71 132kw 180hp Engine type 911.02
Manufactured to OE-equivalent standards, it delivers reliable performance under high heat and pressure conditions typical of Porsche engines. Its direct-fit design ensures proper thread engagement, correct heat range, and uncomplicated installation without modification. This plug is ideal for routine servicing, tune-ups, or replacing a worn plug while maintaining balanced engine operation.
The spark plug creates a precisely timed electrical spark inside the combustion chamber to ignite the air-fuel mixture. This controlled ignition supports smooth engine operation, efficient fuel burn, and consistent power delivery across the RPM range.
Function:
• Produces a reliable and consistent ignition spark
• Iridium electrodes improve durability and spark stability
• Supports smooth idle, responsive throttle, and efficient combustion
• Direct replacement for compatible Porsche applications
Spark plugs naturally wear over time due to repeated heat cycles, combustion stress, and electrical load. Worn plugs can lead to misfires, rough idle, reduced power, and increased fuel consumption. Choosing an OE Match iridium spark plug helps maintain consistent ignition performance, prolonged component life, and dependable running characteristics that match the original factory intent.
When to replace:
• Engine misfires or rough idle
• Hesitation under acceleration
• Increased fuel consumption
• At manufacturer-recommended service intervals
• During routine tune-ups or ignition system servicing

What This Product Does
The ignition coil transforms the vehicle electrical system's low voltage into a high-voltage pulse. This allows the spark plug to ignite the compressed air and fuel mixture at the correct point in the combustion cycle.
Functions
- Generates the high voltage needed by the spark plug
- Supports consistent ignition within its assigned cylinder
- Helps maintain smooth starting, idling and acceleration
- Forms part of the engine's direct-ignition system
Technical Details
- Genuine Porsche ignition coil
- Porsche part number: 9A160210408
- Supplied individually
- Six ignition coils are required per six-cylinder engine
- Supersedes Porsche references 9A160210401, 9A160210402 and 9A160210403
Symptoms of Fault
- Intermittent or persistent engine misfiresRough idle or hesitation during acceleration
- Difficult starting, particularly when the engine is hot
- Reduced engine power or limp modeI
- lluminated engine warning light
- Misfire or ignition-coil circuit fault codes
- Poor fuel economy caused by incomplete combustion.
Why Replacement Matters
Heat, vibration and electrical stress can gradually weaken the internal insulation of an ignition coil. Replacing a confirmed faulty unit helps restore dependable spark delivery and reduces the risk of continued misfiring. Check the spark plug, connector, wiring and engine earths during diagnosis, as faults in these areas can produce similar symptoms or place additional strain on the coil.

FAQs
Can an ignition coil fail only when hot?Yes. Heat can expose deterioration within the insulation or electrical connections, causing an intermittent misfire after the engine warms up.
Should a coil be replaced using only a fault code?
A fault code identifies the affected circuit or cylinder but should be supported by checks of the spark plug, connector, wiring, supply voltage and earth connection.
Should the spark plugs also be inspected?
Yes. Worn, damaged or incorrectly specified spark plugs can increase the electrical load placed on an ignition coil.

Spark plugs are essential components of the ignition system, responsible for generating the electrical spark that ignites the air-fuel mixture within the combustion chamber. Correct specification spark plugs help maintain smooth idle, reliable cold starts, responsive throttle performance, efficient fuel combustion, and controlled emissions. Over time, spark plugs wear or become fouled, which can lead to misfires, reduced engine power, rough running, or increased fuel consumption.
Manufactured by Bosch, a world-renowned original equipment supplier to Porsche, these spark plugs are engineered to OEM specifications with the proper heat range and electrode design required by modern flat-six engines. Durable construction and precise manufacturing help deliver stable ignition performance, long service life, and dependable operation under both daily and spirited driving conditions. Ideal for routine servicing, preventative maintenance, or restoring peak performance.
