Fairly certain they are NGK's too.

Hey got my oil changed on the weekend and the mechanic look at the spark plugs and they were worn with Corona stains around the bottom white bit so he said you need to change them asap so thats why my car performance and high fuel mileage and my car only done 18,244km

Just because the ceramic is discoloured doesn't mean they are warn, I think you need a better/real mechanic.

Post by: Phil №❶ on August 09, 2015, 12:45:43: It's quite normal for spark plugs to discolour due to ionization of gasses and fuel combustion products. What you don't want to see are cracks in the ceramic insulation.
