How Long do NGK Iridium Spark Plugs Last? - A 100k Mile Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 май 2018
- In this video we review how long do NGK Iridium Spark Plugs last and what they look like after 100,000 miles. If you are curious if these plugs can last a long time or long service interval this video shows exactly what kind of wear the spark plugs will have after a lot of miles and use.
This guy is actually smart , I work for a major Diesel engine company , anti seez is good to keep thread from seeding but will throw torque out of spec . I seen people here break head bolt because of anti seez being used on critical parts with critical torque spec ....
Had the ngk laser iridium plugs oem in my acura cl type s 6 speed with 120k miles when I changed them. Put the same ones in. Felt no difference so I'd assume they were still good. The plugs to my knowledge would probably have lasted the life of the car. Not the exact same plugs but close. All ngk plugs are awesome. Run the ngk tr55s in my ls1 trans am, and the tr6 when I wanna run nitrous. The fact these are in my truck stock makes me happy.
I'm surprised how well the electrodes have held up over this mileage and that there isn't a large gap! 👍
had mine in for 213k miles before i changed, no misfires just decided it was time
How much did the gap grow?
@@alanmeyers3957 i didn't bother to check
I bought a 2008 Hyundai Elantra when it was brand new. I put 205,000 miles on it and decided to replace the NGK iridium spark plugs. The car was still running fine and upon removal the plugs still appeared in good shape. I am sticking with NGK iridium spark plugs.
I have to do my plugs on my Jeep soon just turned 93K .Thanks for another smart tip
Thanks Charlie! A lot of controversy on this and I always suggest everyone does their own research but its an old school habit
Good information on the spark plugs brother about the coated spark plugs 👍
Thanks Alberto! 👍
I can vouch for him don't put anything on those spark plugs. Just pull them out and put in new ones ( of course don't forget to gap ) They say spark plugs can last a hundred thousand miles, in the manual book it recommends to keep up with performance chang every 30,000 miles . I've been changing them about every 30 to 40 thousand miles and I do feel the difference in performance, I guess that's how I'm keeping my 22 mpg . It's up to you , you don't have to change it that soon.
Thanks Daniel! 😎
I agree about the anti seize.
Just replaced today plugs on my 2010 Acura RL, put ngk iridium with no grease on em.
They slide in just fine
Thank you
The problem is not putting them in but taking them out. Plugs have a reputation of not coming out of the Ford 5.4L. When that happens, the plug breaks and pieces fall into the cylinder and the repair is very expensive.
The NGK Iridium ix plugs are only rated for
50,000-60,000 miles. THE LASER IRIDIUMS plugs are different and THOSE PLUGS ARE RATED FOR 100,000 miles.
Found out that fact a day after putting them in my Elantra 😁. Have 124,000 miles now.
Stop passing wrong information to people idiot, “any” iridium spark plug is rated for 60k to 150k depending on the vehicle, for my dodge durango 2015 it says evey 100k, so that’s what i do. Read your owner’s manual people.
Do You Have a Recommendation on what NGK spark Plugs to use for a B20B Motor?
Thanks for tip on no anti seize! I've always used it. Getting ready to change uppers this weekend on my 2nd Dodge an 08.
No problem brother! I know its a huge controversy so I encourage everyone to do their own research but that info is straight from NGK 😎
Never-Seez makes a mess! Use just a drop of engine oil on the threads.
Hi do you need to gap these or are they preset?
Reminds of the good old days where you had the split fire and GT+4 plugs 🤣..
lol 👍
Just watched your video of changing the plugs.
Would you change the boots and springs for the coil packs also ?
Or what would cause you to change the boots other than a pack replacement?
I just replace the four spark plug on my 2006 Toyota Corolla with 138,000 miles on it with the Toyota recommended NGK Iridium spark plug and found out that the originally installed are also NGK Iridium. checking the condition of the old one, it looks like in pristine condition still. must have built to last as the life of the car itself. Great product! no wonder it is the one recommended by Toyota.
Nice! I'm close to 140K myself. Thinking of waiting till 150K.
Ah man it would of been really interesting to see the plugs from the banks that shut off when eco functio is on.
Thanks for the video. I have a Bosch. I'll have to check mine. I'm at 92k on them but car working fine
NGK are one of the best or the best Sparkplugs to have for your engine.
Just put these in with the anti-seize before seeing this. Is this a big problem and what should I do?
should you change spark plugs every 10 years if odometer is about 50k miles? or I can keep running on the car until 100k miles?
I put champion platinum 3570 in mine it is running great 3-6 mpg increase. I might replace them at 100,000 miles with Iridium. No anti seize just dielectric grease on the inside of the boots and around the top where the boot seats against the valve cover. It says 13 foot pounds on some videos. The recommendation for torque on the spark plugs is 12-14 foot pounds and not exceed 15 foot pounds. I went with 13.5 foot pounds 162" inch pounds, the gap is at .045" of inch. The coil packs I just tighten to snug. The Denso TT iridium spark plugs have a little piece iridium wire on both sides of the spark gap. I might try that brand or Champion Iridium spark plugs
7 yrs on my spark plug with only 20,000 miles on them should I change them. I have no problems right now.
I’m driving while listening to this video. I run my car kind of hard lol and I have the same type of brand of plugs they have been in there for about two years now and probably 50,000 miles do you think I should change them out?
Yes I recommend to , or just take one or two out just to see the condition
Those plugs look fantastic for 100k! My truck is a 2013 has the older copper plugs which have a 30k change interval and also have that shiny costing on the threads. I changed them at 30k and they squealed like crazy while I was removing them. They also had a small amount of aluminum powder on them. I'm assuming that's because I'm in New England with the humidity in the summer and salt on the roads in the winter. I ended up putting a very small dab of nickle antiseize on the threads. But I've seen the videos with guys slathering it all over the threads of the plugs which isn't necessary at all. Can't wait to see the procharger installed!
Thanks for the support brother! Procharger install will be fun I can't wait! 🤘
CUnit1981 ive had my copper plugs for 85k. 😂
I have never put anti seze on my plugs in my cars. Never had a problem get them out.
the shiny coating on the threads is called nickel plating.
Apparently my car has iridium plugs fitted, car is only 4 years old, 18000 miles, and vauxhall say service schedule says they need changing
Is it Okay to switch to NGK's if your car came with AC Delco's ....??
In my case a 2011 GMC Terrain
These are all I buy. I rarely keep a car even close to 100K miles, so if I use these I am good until I sell.
So these plugs are factory? Dodge put iridium in our trucks?
They are factory starting around the 2014 year I believe. 😎
I didn't get NKG IRIDIUM spark plugs. I got Champion Iridium spark plugs. Is there a difference. I know FCA recommends NKG Spark plugs. The NKG's were kinda pricey.
Great information! I liked...and subscribed too! My iridium application is a 2006 TL.
72000 kms on them they never asked to be changed i did ❤ $8 a piece what can you get for 8 these day's..
i pulled 4 out of my accord after 143k miles and that's about what they looked like
These plugs really do hold up well! 👍
Where can I buy those spark plugs.
Helpful, thanks.
I do believe you have read the gap wrong. Those are not .040 as you state. You are reading the .040 on the side of the ground electrode that is on the low side of the ramp ( it's not touching gauge) , the ground electrode is actually stopping first at the high side of the ramp at .044. At 100,000 mile the gap has grown .004.
Thanks for the vid, great info.
More on the way! 😎
Plugs have a reputation of not coming out of the Ford 5.4L. When that happens, the plug breaks and pieces fall into the cylinder and the repair is very expensive.
Yes Ford decided thar 5 inch long spark plugs are awesome-_- there's a special tool used to those specific plugs out because of their notoriety I took it to a small mechanic and he said was 80% sure he can get them out no problem but it will cost 120 bucks which I gladly paid 30 minutes later all done
are they good for the grand marquis
Great video , I have a 2014 ram 1500 3.6 v6 8 speed automatic with 260,000kms.................thanks for the anti seize advice .
No problem Linamar! More content on the way! 👍
Excellent video. Goes to show that it is useless to replace the spark plugs if it is made of iridium tip and platinum electrode regardless of brands. They are made for lifetime of your car. No need to waste your money on spark plug replacements.
:))
They really arent though, if you want a car to only do 100k miles thats fine, but they should be replaced at least every 100k. They used to be a every 30k item with copper electrodes. Also brand does matter, the cheaper ones seem to have some issues with ceramics getting out of place.
@@Drago0900 I drove a car over 200k with original spark plugs and absolutely no power reduction.
I replaced the factory iridiums in my Mazda at 141k. They were at least twice the gap specified. Not sure, perhaps they were overgapped at some point. Brand new NGK iridiums at the specified gap and fuel economy took a nice trip uphill.
@@johnhoover7869 Perhaps not platinum electrode. If so, the electrode will erode over time and causing wider gap.
I just bought these exact spark plugs from Ebay. I didn't notice that it says made in Japan. Thanks for making this video. I'm returning the spark plugs tomorrow
NGK is a Japanese company.
Japanese engineering is as good as Germany. It's China that sucks.
@@mathewkromeo2934 yea I did some research. Turns out that this company that makes the spark plugs for the fj cruiser. These are actually premium spark plugs.
@@FollowTheCloud lol I would never return anything made in Japan. The only reason why I would agree with you returning them is because they’re from EBay. Who knows if you bought real plugs.
is the laser iridium the same with iridium?
I always use anti seize copper slip, but you need to be aware that using any lube on any thread will make it easier to overtighten accidently.
They have crush washers
Ram question: i have a 2011 ram 1500 5.7 hemi 4x4 and at highway speeds randomly, not all the time, i will get a pretty good steering wheel shake. A water bottle will start splashing if in the cup holder and sometimes putting more load or throttle when it happens cause it to get worse. I do have 35 inch mud tires but that doesn’t account for it coming and going away. Any thought? could it be some type of ball joints or bushing that needs replaced? Thanks!
I'm guessing you have at least a level with spacers in the front? These 1500 trucks have issues putting a level on the front cause it throws the front CVs out of alignment. If you stick your head underneath you'll see your CVs on a crazy angle. Only way to fix it is to remove the spacers or get a true lift kit that lowers the diff to put everything back in alignment.
BoostedMotorsports Thank you!
I have the ngk v power and I'm at 150k and still running good
Can any of the plugs generate electric????
Were your old plugs laser iridium or ngk iridium ix.?
Thanks! you just saved me from a torque out of wack!
How long does the NGK spark plug last well depend when you purchase the fake NGK it will dies fast and in store NGK will last longer
The Iridiums are good for 100k miles
Dude,,get an old school wire feeler gauge, much more accurate than the slide gauges. Just saying. Keep up the vids! G
I have flat steel feeler gauges for when it needs to be very accurate. This one just works as a good illustration for the video 😎
Awesome ! Thank you!
Thanks Ezio! 👍
I agree on the anti sieze. I only use it on my bike tho. My Ducati runs hot so it seems to help keep them in shape. Tried it without but I run thru plugs
My NGK’s Part# ILZKR7B211, were good for 80k mi, anything more you will have bad fuel mileage. 2008 VW Passat VR6. Shell V-Power!
Might see more heat evidence on some plugs but not others depending on what cylinders they came from..... not sure but maybe the mds system on our trucks is the culprit for that? Maybe?
I always turn the mds off by using the gear selector on the wheel and turn it up to 8th gear.... just sounds better with my exhaust. Also haven't really notice a fuel consumption difference really.
Great vids sir!
Thanks for the support and feedback!!! 😁
My iridium did last a year!...then back to ngk dcpr7e road king 2002
Have you lost your jobs at brazzers ?? I see you hair grow back
Yeah I got fired but I'm still doing auditions! 🤣
I have iridium ngk spark plug already 18500 km do k have to change the spark plug or not bcs yamaha work and start perfect
Plz dont waste that plug , go to some repair shop and let them clean your iridium sparks
Question for you, i have a 2014 express 2wd ram. I just put in some MSD street fire coils and new plugs. I noticed that the plugs i ordered were the NGK V power race plugs:NGK Racing Spark Plugs R5671A-8. Do you have any knowledge if these are ok for use? Any help would be appreciated.
My 04 expedition just got new spark plugs my mechanic recommends to change every 10k miles what you think
It varies. My '08 Mitsubishi Endeavor is every 30k. Check your owner manual to be sure.
Buddy open up the owners manual and look at the maintenance schedule
10k is ripping you off, its not the 1950's anymore id reccomend taking your car somewhere else
Ten k is pretty low just pulled iridium out of a 2010 Nissan rogue only lasted two years before the electrodes burned completely out don't believe the gimmicks these companies are feeding you
@@tonyquiles4399 Must have a faulty/worn engine then. That's not normal. Sorry
You did not put that goop stuff on your spark plug on any type
100k miles on spark plugs?!?!?! Hahahhaha must be nice having a regular car.
A tuned m340i eats through those like crazy.
I will never use NGK ever again. one of these fell apart inside my 13 ram hemi engine. the ground electrode is missing, the center electrode is missing and some of the porcelain is missing. no clue when it happened. engine never ran funny and no money light on. only been in there about 40k miles. I would also say this is why 2 plugs in ea cylinder is a bad idea. if it were to stop working in a single plug engine I would have know to stop right away.
I have a theory, that plug was probably dropped on installation, these come with champions from the factory, did you do the installation? Use whatever you want, however the NGKs are the best plugs on the market.
Are you going to be using aftermarket coil packs?
Hey Scott stock coil packs are plenty strong and have been used on high HP builds much more than this one 😎
You shouldn’t need to change your coil packs, only the plugs. They’re not like spark plug wires that would get changed out as well.
what are your thoughts on using the E3 plugs
I'm interested in using these also.
Anthony Florez I used them in my 03 dakota with the v8 4,7 they were good
A buddy and I got some at the same time and I replaced the plugs on my Legacy GT (WRX engine) and on his GTi. Made our cars run like shit. Garbage plugs. BUT these were highly modified engines with upgraded turbos and massive injectors, so anything except NGK iridium sucked. The E3 was by far the worst though, both cars sounded like they were running on 3 cylinders, would barely idle and would choke and stutter on light acceleration. We returned them and bought some NGK iridium and both cars ran super smooth. Sucked big time because changing plugs on a Subaru is not easy. I've been using NGK since. Do some google-fu. LOTS of horror stories on E3. I'll never run them again and always recommend against them to anyone thinking of buying them.
gravitygear your saying the E3 plugs are garbage
Yes I am. But, a car that really doesn't care what plugs you put in it will probably run them just fine. Anything remotely performance oriented I would stay far, far away from E3
I enjoy your channel
Thanks! Plenty more content on the way! 👍
How do you know they have done 100k.that would be a long ass experiment.
Thank you for the video as always great info.
Joe if your engine is in good condition every spark plug going to look ok.
Now, what is the most important cost of spark plugs?
When you hold food recommended storage for 10 years and cost you 10 time more from food which can last only a couple of days and 10 times lower price?
***********************************************
Same spark plugs * do you promoting tiffs from those exotic manufactures?
Do you know in fuel and engine oils have so many additives which containing metals?
Do you know those metals covering dielectric Porcelain and spark become decreased
**********************************************************
Do you know 99% of normal peoples going to buy simple low cost spark plugs and going to replace them more frequently?
Fresh meat = fresh spark plugs sound well and are really healthy what you think about this all?
Jaguar wtf
Thanks
👍
I do a full service every 6 months.
those aint the original plugs frm factory mile 0.......
I don't believe they have done 100,000 miles, where is the proof? I barely got 50,000 km out of a set of NGK iridium plugs I put in my Fiat Punto before it started to misfire and when I took them out the electrodes had partly burnt away in all of them, and you don't gap them, just fit them straight from the box because the central electrode is thin gaping them may damage it.
Stan Augustowicz the NGK Iridium ix plugs he’s showing are only rated for 50,000 miles (not sure how many kms that is) BUT the NGK LASER IRIDIUM PLUGS are rated for 100,000 miles. I just ran
NGK LASER IRIDIUM PLUGS on my HONDA PILOT for 142,000 miles with no issues. I don’t recommend it, but I did with no issues. I’m confident the pair I just changed them with will go another 100k +
SOLID
@@DAhonda247 Thanks for your info. After looking at the code on my plugs I have found they were platinum ones not iridium. My mechanic who fitted them told me they were iridium and would be good for 80,000 km (50,000 miles) but it appears I was duped as I paid him the price of iridium plugs. I have since been doing my own servicing so I will give real iridium plugs a fair go next service.
@@stanaugustowicz8419 you can always get the ngk ix from pepboys they have lifetime warranty and not have to worry about buying spark plugs again for the life of the car lol
I have 192k on the sparkplugs of a Honda Civic. It still averages 39 mpg, mostly hwy
I will still use anti seize.
Get over it.
Hey get to the point. Just show the plugs.
Hater... if you can do better than do it.
Some people just talk,, no life, just resemblance of a loser Carlos get a life
@@damyou6363 I get to the point and this losers truck runs fine.
Yeah, I'm changing the iridium plugs in my 2015 BMW 228i with new NKG's at 75K...But your pit hair and tattoos have got me distracted.
