Featuring double platinum electrodes, this spark plug is designed to deliver a strong, consistent spark with improved durability and resistance to wear. Platinum technology helps maintain optimal spark gap over a longer service life, supporting efficient combustion, smooth engine operation, and reliable cold starting. Compared to standard plugs, double platinum designs offer enhanced longevity and stable performance under demanding driving conditions.
Key Features & Benefits:
• Genuine Bosch manufacture
• Double platinum electrode design for extended service life
• Strong, consistent ignition performance
• OEM-quality replacement Supplied as single spark plug
Spark plugs are essential for reliable ignition and efficient combustion. Over time they wear and lose effectiveness, which can cause misfires, rough running, reduced performance, and higher fuel consumption. Replacing them at the correct interval helps maintain smooth engine operation and protects the ignition system from unnecessary strain.
When spark plugs should be replaced:
• At the manufacturer’s recommended service interval
• If the engine misfires or runs unevenly
• When cold starting becomes difficult
• If fuel economy or performance drops
• When plugs show signs of wear, fouling, or corrosion
• During major servicing or engine maintenance

Spark plugs are essential for creating the electrical spark that ignites the air-fuel mixture inside the engine’s combustion chamber. The correct OE spark plug delivers the right spark intensity and timing, which helps the engine start reliably, run smoothly, and produce optimal power.
Spark plugs wear over time due to electrode erosion and combustion deposits. Worn plugs can lead to misfires, rough idle, sluggish throttle response, and reduced fuel economy. Replacing them with genuine OE Porsche spark plugs ensures the correct gap, heat range, and ignition quality matched to your engine - helping maintain smooth performance and driving enjoyment.
When to replace spark plugs:
• At manufacturer-recommended service intervals
• During routine engine tune-ups
• If experiencing misfires, hesitation, or rough idle
• When cold starting becomes harder
• If fuel economy drops
• During engine diagnostics or repair work

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 play a critical role in engine performance by creating the electrical spark that ignites the air-fuel mixture inside the combustion chamber. Correct specification spark plugs ensure efficient combustion, smooth idling, crisp throttle response, reliable cold starting, and optimal fuel economy. Over time, spark plugs wear and can become fouled or eroded, leading to misfires, roughness, loss of power, and reduced efficiency.
Manufactured by Bosch, an original equipment supplier with a long-standing partnership with Porsche, these spark plugs feature durable construction and precise engineering for consistent ignition performance and long service life. Ideal for routine maintenance, preventive servicing, or restoring peak performance, this set of six ensures balanced combustion across all cylinders.
