Hi all,

I was just wondering what is the spark plugs lifetime on Iridium IK20? I've read here that they last shorter but I am not really sure. I've changed mine about 18 months ago and I've done about 30-40.000 km.

Thanks,
Mercer

The IK20's are recommended to be changed at 30,000 miles or 48,000 km. so should be ok for a bit longer :thumbup1:

If you use a 17 you won't get the plugs out but you will round them off...plugs are a 16mm socket..if you don't use a proper plug socket you'll need a magnet to remove the plug once it's unscrewed..
Dean the plugs you have got are for running a charger so I wouldnt fit them till you've got the charger on.

Ok, I've just realised that I travelled about 48k k's so ...Denso IK20 Iridium power..here we come. I've already ordered 6 and I hope i will get them in about 2 weeks. I know i can still drive the car even if they are over the 30k miles but i like to make sure everything is in order before something goes wrong. Better safe than sorry, right?
