    yep..
    Just did this tonight. 82k miles. Plugs looked surprisingly good, some browning near the base like others have shown. Ill have to pick up some MAF and throttle body cleaner to complete the job. Thanks for the write up.

    Just flipped 100K and time for oil change, and plugs too. What about the coil packs? I don't see anyone in this thread swapping those out as a preventive measure.

    nice write up. 142K on the original plugs. Would a valve cover gasket failing cause that staining on the coil packs in the second picture? No other signs of oil leaking around the valve cover or the tops of the packs.

    Hey, sorry to revive an old post, but your video helped me alot with my 2016!! Thank you! Is there a torque spec for the coil packs when they get bolted back down?
