Probably the ones already in there. What is the recommended change
interval? Most plugs last 100k today. |

Use a good name brand platinum plug that meets the heat range
specifications. I recommend either NGK or Denso. There's no reason to
pay dealer prices for the plugs. The same plugs will be available
elsewhere at a significantly lower price. >> Stay informed about: spark plugs |

NGK V-Power plugs work well and are inexpensive (under $2 each). They'll
last 15-30K miles and are the most cost-effective plugs. I installed a
set at 45K miles and the car runs great with them.
Platinum plugs (that's what came in our cars) are more expensive, but
last 30-60K miles. Iridium plugs last the longest - up to 100K miles) -
but the price is outrageous and they offer no other advantages. >> Stay informed about: spark plugs |
