Hello guys.
56k on my 2022 and wondering when I need to change the plugs.
Been running a tune on it since 15k.
Seems to run fine just looking to do preventive maintenance.
Thanks,

Do it. Spark plugs may be fine but gap widens. It's kind of a pain so just put in new plugs.

Ok, but after looking at the space I'm paying someone to do it!
At 48 I'm done with the young guy work. :LOL::LOL:

It takes about an hour…not hard at all. A little tedious but not hard. As for lifespan…30-30k if tuned. They eat plugs like candy. Go a gear range colder gapped at .028. The NGK Ruthenium’s are the smoothest I’ve ran so far.
