Maybe this poll shows how many people are affected by problems changing their plugs.

I changed mine out at about 8000 miles, so I was ok. Replaced with the one piece design and anti-seize.

Yet is the key word. Let's just wait and see if it stays like this after more people vote.

Mine came out of the heads at roughly 29000 miles without incident. I don't have any reason to believe they were ever changed prior to that swap.

I've pulled mine out 7-8 times and never had an issue.
