my dad's camry, spark plug change only after 80k. not sure his is iridium or platinum. but his car fully stock. the plugs could probably have lasted another 20k or so.

 

my car, the plugs last abt 20k. not sure if it's the plugs, the ECU tuning, or the fuel additives i added. but i added the same additives for his car and the sparkies were fine.

I am also on volker. Heard it can last 100k. So after 80k, still can be used?

I used to change every 20K in my previous car but no more. Not much improvement apart from greater butt feel initially. Been using stock for 19K till now.

volkerplugs can last up to 160k or 2yrs which ever comes first.

I have tried/used DENSO Iridum for about 40k and still ok.However switch it out and go back to the copper plug because it has more brute power as compare to the iridum .

Still keeping the iridum as spare.

I used the plugs till they start to misfire then change. You will be surprised how long they can last over the recommended change interval.
