Default Tuning Up?

Hi everyone,

I'm about to do my first full tune up and I'm looking for suggestions. It's a 97 A6 with V6 engine.

What brand and type of spark plug is good for this car?

What oil should I get (brand and type)? The car has 220km on it.

Thanks for your comments in advance

Kianoosh

Interesting to see that NGK is the brand rather than the Bosch Platinum Plus series.... Thanks a lot... Where is WIX oil filter sold?
