My honda is close to a service interval where i need to replace the sparkplugs and my question is do i go oem or some aftermarket ones?
 
why are you even considering aftermarket sparkplugs for your honda cr-v when oem parts are specifically designed for your vehicle and have been tested for compatibility and performance aftermarket parts might be cheaper but they can vary in quality and may not offer the same reliability or longevity as oem parts if you want to ensure your car runs smoothly and avoid potential issues down the road stick with oem sparkplugs
 
I agree with getting an aftermarket part instead of OEM. at least with after market, you're sure that it's a part meant for your vehicle.. OEMs can be trial or error sometimes.

I'd reccommend sticking with OEM plugs because Honda engines are quite specific about their heat range and electrode design. Aftermarket options might do the job, but going with OEM helps keep everything running smoothly. Personaly, I always opt for NGK or Denso, whichever one matches the factory specs.

When it comes to your Honda,choosing OEM spark plugs is definitely the way to go. These plugs are designed to fit your car's specifications perfectly, which helps improve performance and extend their lifespan.While aftermarket options might save you some money, they often don't provide the same level of performance or durabiltiy. So,if you want reliability and a smooth ride, stick with the OEM spark plugs

Honestly, completely up to you. For me, OEM is the better option for spark plugs. It's quite an intricate part. I don't think aftermarket options are to be trusted for something like that.
 
Yep, I agree. You can't go wrong sticking with OEM spark plugs, they're the best bet if you want your engine running smoothly for ages
