Bad Spark Plugs

Just curious if anyone has had any trouble with the spark plugs in their 04 screw? I had to have all mine replaces after much arguing and many miles of test driving by the dealer!

Mine had a miss under power. Brought it in to the dealer and the magic box said #3 coil was bad. Dealer moved coil to another cyclinder and miss moved with it. Replace coil and the miss was still there, replace #3 plug, miss still there, replace all plugs miss gone. Even the tech was surprised that the 8 plug swap did the trick.

Monica....I haven't personally experienced problems, but there's been some instances seen in this forum. The coil-on-plug set up has had burps...but when they're good, they're good for awhile; when they're bad they go quickly.

Hopefully you're now set up for years of care-free driving! Good luck!
