2014 sedan spark plug and gasket

[nudnik]

At only 68k with 10 years of usage with the car otherwise functioning well, can I wait on the spark plug....they say they have to change the gasket too. Quoting 1800 bucks for this..ouch

I’m at almost 216K miles and mine are original.

I changed mine at 102k mi. Service interval is 105kmi. Doing it any sooner on a car in otherwise good shape is a waste of $ and resources, IMO.

I think I paid around $500 P&L at the dealer. $800 is a ripoff IMO.

That’s ridiculous. You can research and replace the parts yourself For a ton less. My theory if it isn’t broken, don’t try to fix it. I’m on a trip heading back tomorrow and got 31.9 mpg with the car loaded and A/C running with almost 216K miles. She runs as good now as it it did as new.
