    Hey Guys,

    Car just hit 36,000 miles. Recommened service at 35k was new Spark Plugs and Pollen Filter. Dealership wanted $350 to do this tune up. Found the filter for $15 and i can do that myself. Plugs seem to be $40 on Amazon. Any recommendation on what plugs to get?

    Boshe? or these NGK (PFR7S8EG) Spark Plug?

    Anuthing else i should check?

    Thanks!

    Completed my 35k mile service a few weeks ago, very simple.

    Used the ngk plugs roughly $38-40 for 4 off amazon, filter maybe $10. Would recommend using a magnetic spark plug socket very helpful. Probably took all of 20 minutes to do everything and spent under $50. Check out rock auto for spark plugs their price was very similar to amazon

    I used the ngk PFR7S8EG, and no issues and excellent reviews although the current ones were still in good shape

    Is there no value having the service department go through their checks also?
