are the spark plugs from a Megane 2.0 16v the same as the R19 16v or at least compatible?
Thanks

come on chaps, must be simple, can't think of a reason they wouldn't work, basically same engine, same rocker cover but what about lead connections?
thanks

yep, same plugs, no bother.

Interestingly, NGK list different plugs between the 19 16v and the clio 16v...

hence multi electrodes are not recommended ,get standard single electrode ones

I was referring to the fact that you said the 'only' different was the lifetime of the plug, which is not the case Wink and yes, i agree with single eletrodes.
