Question re: Platium Plugs
I visited the Honda Parts Department and asked the person behind the
counter to give me the price of Platium Spark Plugs that would fit in my
vehicle. I have a 1999 Honda Accord EX (4 cyld.). He told me the part
number of the plugs that I needed:
PZFR5F-11
He told me that the price per plug was $21.30 and the price for 4 plugs
was $85.20. I thought this was too much money to pay for spark plugs. I
called a auto store and they told me they charged about the same price for
those same plugs but could sell me other platium spark plugs made by
another company that cost less than $5.00 per plug. Why do the platium
spark plugs mentioned above cost so much more than other platium plugs?
Are they special made for Honda vehicles?

Good question. A Google search brought up much lower prices, like $3.45 each
for genuine NGK PZFR5F-11 plugs at

Re: Question re: Platium Plugs
wel,been through this a couple of months ago.The plugs on that site that are
3.45 each are not platinum.They lack the letter "p"in fron of the
number.That "p"stands for platinum,
With that said,they are reccommended for that car,but not being platinum
means you have to change them more often.
I put non platinum in my 2001 ex-v6,and find no difference...they just wont
last as long,but 100,000 kms shouldn't be a problem.

Check out www.discountautoparts.com or www.rockauto.com.
NGK Iridium plugs are an extremelly high quality plug which is good for
100,000 miles in most applications and sell online for $7-$8 each.
Platinum plugs from several brands are $2.50-$5.00 each.
Honda and your dealer are enjoying very fat profits on their parts.

The odd thing was that I googled on the full number and still got a hit.
The hit was from references to the platinums farther down... but the
original platinums weren't listed for sale.
An object lesson in caveat emptor, for sure. Now about this Rulex watch I
bought on the internet....

The odd thing was that I googled on the full number and still got a hit.
The hit was from references to the platinums farther down... but the

An object lesson in caveat emptor, for sure. Now about this Rulex watch I
bought on the internet....
