Wasting money unnecessarily?
By teaching them on how to be penny wise Pound foolish?

Mercedes Benz as well as other modern car manufacturers specified iridium and platinum plugs for their engine after years and years of careful and expensive Research and Development. Now you are saying they who manufactured and recommended such plugs are fools or are telling car owners the specified parts are waste of money?

I'm shocked at you. Highly shocked!

Oga, even the link you provided didn't specify iridium or platinum spark plugs.
It only said: if you want to upgrade!
Why will you want to upgrade to iridium or platinum when there are cheaper alternatives that serves the same purpose?
People like you is the reason Nigerians say Benz is more expensive to maintain.
Iridium or platinum is not OEM spark plugs for Benz.
Iridium n platinum spark plugs serve no special purpose... Its a waste of money.

People like you are the reason why folks regret using Benz. Always insisting on cheap inferior parts. You're one of the many reasons why folks dread buying a Nigerian used Benz.
You call people ITK in Benz whatsapp forum, yet, you are the ITK. Bosch, NGK, Star etc are names of manufacturers of the plugs.
The iridium and platinum are the conductive materials with which Bosch, NGK, Star manufactures plugs.

You can recommend copper based plugs for your personal usage, but don't recommend it for others using modern Benz with tight tolerances.

Modern engines require platinum or iridium based plugs cos they usually last between 60,000-120,000miles.

One spark plug recommended by Benz in their W203 W211 and W212 W163/4 is Bosch FR8DPP33 which is platinum tipped.

Its out of ignorance you say iridium and platinum serves no purpose. Well. I can't argue with a man who use hammer to hammer his ball joints, tie rod ends and Stabilizer linkage when they're worn out.

If you don't sell parts why does it bother you if we buy iridium or platinum spark plugs or not?
Stop deceiving the gullible.
We are trying to make Nigerians know that Benz is cheaper to maintain at the long run but you are making them think otherwise due to ur greediness.

I'm only telling folks their cars can last long using genuine OEM parts. Stop deceiving folks. Copper plugs are relegated to Benz ponton and flat boots. Na your type go dey refill gas shocks when folks can buy Sachs or bilstein and enjoy long life on parts. Stop being penny wise, pound foolish.

What is the OEM spark plugs for Benz?
Stop making people waste money.
You don't know shit about Benz parts, Benz is built to last.
Even when they give you their hard earned money for original parts you still go n buy substandard parts for them and claim its the best.

In your folly you forget that good quality comes with a price. If usage of fake inferior parts work on your car, you should not recommend it as the default for unsuspecting public.

If you're so good, start manufacturing your own cars and put up your specs.

I hope you can actually defend these spurious allegations if I decide to fight back legally?

Hope you can give concrete evidences of any dubious activities or transactions I conducted with you or anyone?

Hope you can bring in witnesses?

You may be ranting and feeling funky but remember your friend Kemi Olunloyo before you enter bush.

As a side note: only a dishonest fellow that thinks others are dishonest. Alot of guys both on and off Nairaland, within and outside Nigeria has given me cash to purchase items and cars for them, and NOT 1 single complain. Its on record, go beat it.

If you don't know ask. Better still, go create your own whatsapp group and recommend cheap parts for your subscribers. I imagine @seun has made you moderator abi?

Whoever is not satisfied with the whatsapp group has a freedom to leave.

PS: The reason @shortgun was booted out of the whatsapp group was due to his recommendations for fixing Benz parts with scandalously non standard procedure. The reason it took him this long and he's still beefing baffles me.

None of your business. If you wanna stop it, meet me In court. Its not my group, rather a group of persons came together and may I remind you, that group has legal backing. Its a registered group and its portfolio is with CAC.

You wanna stop it, get a court injunction, you wanna ruin my reputation, get ready for a very tough legal battle.
