Are Pakistani Changan owners using genuine o r recommended spark plugs during replacement, o r are low-quality alternatives common?

Cheap aftermarket plugs are widely available but often underperform. Is the availability of OEM parts an issue in local markets?

Unfortunately, low-grade plugs are common:

Cheap alternatives no-name brands are often sold as “genuine”.

Poor plugs:

Misfire more often

Have lower heat resistance

Shorter life

Recommended for Changan Kalam:

NGK, Denso, o r Bosch Iridium/Platinum

Proper heat range for your engine

➡️ Ask for OEM equivalent o r better from known brands.
