It's a pinned post that people with queries about spark-plug types and gaps can consult without having to start fresh threads each time.

The first five letters/numbers ("B205E", etc.) refer to the engine type of your 9-5. B205 is 2.0 litre; B235 is 2.3 litre; B308 is 3.0 litre v6. M** is model year. "R" suffix is Aero HOT.

If you use the VIN decoder it will tell you which engine you have :)

All B235Rs use the same plugs.

Tuned Aeros (2.3HOT, B235R) - NGK BCPR7ES-11. Change the set when you change the oil+filter.

Just looked at NGK website and they say for 2002 9-5 aero hot the spark plug is   BCPR6EIX-11 ??

Is this a better plug for me to fit rather than the BCPR7ES-11

mine is Hirsched 280BHP

Don't know which bit of their site you're looking at but their pdf catalogue says PFR6H-10 for the 9-5 Aero which is what Saab say too so I'd use them *unless* Hirsch say to use a different plug.

Looking at their partfinder section .. states the model number you just posted but then as an upgrade the BCPR6EIX-11 number, just had a look and its basically an Iridium plug .. think they use them on the 3.0l V6`s but they are £60

Ive just ordered the 7es-11`s  from ebay for £8   as someone on this thread said they where for the Aero HOTs  .. I hope they are right
