Yes... I feel the same situation.. Its about a month I had been use .. When running at about more 80mph.. my car jerk and lost power.. and even I throttle more .. it won't go.. But starting morning.. even during after warmup engine no problem for starting.. I buy new spark plug.. when I unplug this one.. the sharp shape become same as the video... Truly shock to see it Then I realise this fake one..!!
I'm a little late to the game here and have had these Iridiums in my car for about a year now. Didn't even bother to check all this before installation. Is there any way to know or just have to take one out and look? Thanks
There getting good at the Counterfeits, just received some fake ones 1. The printing is aligned and a good color 2. The tip even has a little recess but wrong shape 3. The made In Japan has the little line under the P which people said if it has it it’s legit 4. Threads are pretty clean looking no defects but you can see light machining which fakes have But the main dead giveaway was no lot number on the Hex on any of them. But damn do they look good 🥲
In my country, in indonesia, you can see the official store of honda selling fake spark plug and sell for the same price as original spark plug 😂
Awe man. That just sucks.
@@projectsbyj25 yeah, actually honda not do that, but the honda irresponsible employees do. They never restock the store with original spark plug.
Not only Indonesia
Fake ones are erodium tip😂

From my experience, u would have to take it out and look.
Make sure your engine is cool when you take them out. Last thing you want is to learn they're real but have to put a helicoil in afterwards.
@@ryelor123 Thank you! I wasn't going to do it myself but have a shop take a look. How long of a cool down do you think? 2001 Jaguar S Type 4.0
Where you bought original NGK?
From Oreilly’s auto part store.
The box on the right is the fake one. I use to run These boxes for NGK on my gluer, and I can clearly see ugly pressure marks on the side of the box.
Who sold you the fake ones??
Bought off eBay thinking they were real.

I know. I was fooled by them. I’m lucky I caught it before it melted or worse on my car.
