My old plugs were autolite xp iridiums and they had been in for a long time, finally getting about 1`00k miles and due for replacement. My Scion XB 2.4 still started, ran fine, and had no codes. My main concern was that the old plugs would get stuck in the cylinder head, despite using anti seize coating some years ago. The old Autolite XPs came out fine and new Bosch double iridiums were a perfect fit. The old plugs appeared fine, no damage, some central wire wear with a corresponding gap increase. Bosch double iridiums have the hard iridium surface on both the wire surface and the tip and should be more wear resistant than single iridium surface plugs where the center wire will wear off. On starting the engine a smooth idle was apparent but driving revealed that the engine was now more responsive at low rpms and pulled much more smoothly allowing me to shift my manual transmission at low rpm with improved torque. Additionally, on entering the highway I noted that there was no longer a surge when the rpm crossed 3000 rpm, it was smooth, linear and felt stronger. Additionally my factory mpg gauge shows a slight mpg increase. So far I am very happy with the investment in these plugs- 1. Chrome coating on the thread surface means I don't have to worry if I have to ever chance these plugs again, and no anti seize coating is needed. 2. The increase in torque, especially at lower rpms enables me to shift earlier and use less throttle. This increases gas mileage. The old plugs had what I estimate was a .004 inch increase in gap. A more robust spark at low rpms may increase the torque. Or perhaps the 30% advertised decreased voltage required to jump the spark gap allows a hotter spark which causes a better ignition. 3 Bosch guarantees these for 7 years. That's pretty darn good, although the Autolite plugs have a lifetime warranty. In seven years you ought to pull them anyway just to check them.

I hadn't replaced the spark plugs in my Toyota Corolla for over 15,000 km and though I should, even though I had no issues. Interestingly I removed the old ones which were identical to these that I just purchased. Obviously I made the right choice again without knowing it. Car continues to run great with 171,000 km.
