NGK, Denso make great parts for Asian engines but not German engines, I would stick with Bosch plug which is OEM of E430.

I didn't check ClubPlug.net, I'll check then out. SparkPlugs.com price is higher than Rockauto.com. Rockauto is very good at customer services, I need to take into account the services too in buying these 16 plugs.

Thanks for pointing to the Bosch rebate. There is $1 rebate for each "Platinum Plus" plug with limit of 16. The rebate states that: Offer excludes original Bosch Platinum. According to Bosch site and some MB forums, Bosch FR8-DPP33 is the same as Bosch part# 7422. My question: Is Bosch# 7422 a Platinum Plus ? Therefore it is qualified for $1 rebate ? $16 for 16 plugs is not bad if the rebate applied to Bosch# 7422.
