Default Iridium plugs for 03 Disco

Hey all,

I am wanting to get iridium plugs and I have found on NGK that they only list

2003 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER 4.4 V8 M62 FI

Iridium IX part # BKR6EIX stock #6418 Gap .032

Would this fit my 4.6? OR what do you recommend?

That is because you are looking up the Range Rover, NOT the Discovery.
Get the ones for the 2002 Discovery, all DII's use the same spark plug, even the 4.6.

Look at what years these plugs fit.
The new RR has a Jaguar engine, and it is the 4.4L engine.

So the npart number that you need is...BKR5EIX-11
Gaped at .44.

EDIT: Gapped at .044.

No, a 4.4 is a BMW engine, you have a 4.6 Buock/Rover emgine.
As for your choice, I am running the Fusions with Magnacor wires, I liked the Bosch Platinum Plus 4's a lot better, they made more low end torque and cost less.

More low end torque huh? I have used Bosch Platinum Plus 4's on my VW's and liked them too...

So maybe i'll stay with what i have experienced.

Thanks!
