With a tune on these motors, a lot of us change them every 10k miles or so. I change mine every 2nd or third oil change.
Gotta pay to play unfortunately.

Most people recommend replacing them every 20-25k miles when tuned. I'd advice to visually inspect them first before swapping them out.
Also, for reference, BMW service interval for spark plug is every 3 (15k mile) oil Changes or roughly around 45,000 miles. Last edited by FriedPiston; 03-03-2014 at 03:59 PM.. |

What if I have 34,000 miles and been tuned since 14,000 miles....should I change them? Everything is running fine, knock on wood. I kinda have that don't fix it if it ain't broke kinda mentality lol
