Replace Coil Packs with spark plugs for prevention?

[ingraha3]

Sorry if this is redundant, but after a good search and review I'm still not sure what is best.
I have 35k on my 2012 A4 B8 so I am planning on replacing my spark plugs soon.

** My question is whether it is a good idea to replace the coil packs at the same time just for preventative maintenance?

My car is running beautifully without any issues.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

I just had my 35k service done. They replaced just the spark plugs. I don't see a need unless you want to upgrade.

What he said. There's no need to replace the coil packs unless they go bad or you really want the red tops.

If you want to be proactive and have optimal running coilpacks (as they do wear over time), sure. Once every 35k miles adds $80 to the total cost of maintenance. Otherwise, you can replace as they die (always carry a spare or two in the trunk!).

I got them as a set deal, ~$110 for 4 r8 coils and 4 ngk's so I just replaced them both
