I was quoted $500.00 for spark plug replacement on my 2016 Toyota TRD

    So Denso is colluding with Toyota to make everyone destroy their engine top end so we all go buy new cars.

    Okey dokey.....

    No one said anyone was colluding. I will say you are a troll though.
    I will also state again that I will always use a small amount of anti-sieze on every plug I install as long as I live. The reason behind that is a great deal of experience. That experience includes plugs I have installed with it and plugs others have installed without it. You may be lucky or you may learn why people use anti-sieze on plugs.

    What I do not expect you to learn is how not to be a troll.

    OK. So I'll quote you, verbatim:

    "In addition the same people (manufacturers) have a interest in me replacing my engine or vehicle)".

    So, please tell me how it is in Denso (who says don't use anti seize) interest to make me buy a new Toyota truck if they aren't colluding.

    The internet is chock full of trolls.....

    I've been doing that for the past 10 years now. Never once had a problem. At the end of the day, do what ever you prefer. But like you I will keep on using antiseize.
