Default 2004 Sentra with platinum plugs - 01-08-2007 , 01:46 PM






I have a 2004 nissan sentra 1.8s with 37,000 miles. At what mileage and/or
time intervals do the platinum plugs need to be replaced? I'm used to
changing conventional plugs on other cars every 10 to 15 thousand miles.

105,000 is the recommended spark plug change

I have a 99 Altima with 182,000 miles and still has the original plugs.
Engine still runs smooth, no loss of power. My theory...don't fix it if it
ain't broke.

Are you the original owner? Your plugs were literally in there for
182000 miles?

Today's computer controlled cars can compensate for the wear of the plug
to a great extent. Even though the car runs smooth, your gas mileage
could be better and you emissions may be off.
