What's everyone's spark plug of choice?
I've had a P0300 code coming up with S/S fault showing on dash. One potential cause could be plugs so looking for recommendations.
Cheers.
Spark Plugs
Cheers calnorth, I went to my usual starting place, eurocarparts, and found them for £25, which I thought wasn't too bad.....until I realised that was per a SINGLE plug!!! Obviously I haven't bought plugs for a while.
Found ones somewhere else for £9 each https://www.buycarparts.co.uk/ngk/7615852
Just checked the manual, I'm not used to having such a thing, and it's NGK that's recommended so I'll follow their advice.

Turvey, looks like you are correct as NGK seems to be mentioned a lot. I must admit when your QQ is Serviced by Nissan I never even thought to look at what was installed or if in fact changed with short mileage - Dave

P0300 or other misfire codes are known to be thrown on 1.2 dig t when the valves have coked up, on the QQ theres a new manifold and blow by hose that got introduced cor campaign before Christmas time 2019. Just food for thought if you still get it afterwards.

No no it's not too expensive you just need to get the inlet valves cleaned, and get the updated manifold if you want to reduce the coking.
Most garages these days will have walnut shell blasting kits to clean intake valves.
That's if this is your issue ofcourse.
