Sounds like warranty time.
There is some argument about this but Bosch makes about four qualities of
wire sets.
#1. OEM
#2. OEM Replacement
#3. El Cheapo universal for PepBoys, Chief, Auto Zone
#4. Very good Bosch sold through Authorized Bosch Auto Repair Shops.
Not likely you've got an Air Cooled but the air cooled needs a solid core
coil wire (sets are normally shipped with a resistance coil wire even
though the rest of the set is solid core).
Easiest way to tell on just sight is the quality of the rubber/plastic
boots that cover the spark plug holes.
Cheap floppy plastic - cheap wireset.
