spark plugs

Mine started misfiring after 43k miles. I changed the plugs and reset adaptations. Runs much better now with no issues.

I was trying to wait for the free dealer changeout but that interval was clearly too long. I am thinking every 20k miles would be good.

My old plugs did have a bit of "High Speed Glazing".

ECS has plugs for $80 and the socket needed for $15. I just ordered Thurs and will be delivered Mon.

Those look like 80K plugs to me and a bit on the rich side but not bad...

They all appear consistent at least, and because I bought the car used, I'm not sure how many miles they have on them.
