Default 30,000 mile plugs?

This is for you guys that been told you don't have to change your plugs for every 50k or 100k or whatever. I changed mine for the first time now at 30k and the electrode was burnt down about .010. So that would effectively put my gap at .064. This couldn't have been good on the coil packs. I just put in the standard Bosch Platinums and I will be changing them in about 15k. Also like jdaniel said....they are easy to change! Took me about a hour(first time) to finish. Next time it will take 30 minutes at best.

Get out there and change them plugz!!!

I change my NGK's about every 30,000 miles. Good advice.

I just changed mine from stockers to NGK V-power... Mine looked fine after 48k (despite having forced induction and an off tune)
