This 2014 has 87,500 on the odometer and a recommended spark plug change at 105k miles.
I figured "better sooner than never" so I purchased the OEM Denso iridium longlife plugs from Rock Auto.
It was a fairly simple task to complete. However, the first two plugs (from the left when facing the firewall) initially took a little effort to free up but it was easy to wrench them out with a 14mm spark plug socket and extension once I got them started.
However, the third and fourth plugs required a focused effort to free them up. And once initially loosened, they turned noticeably slower coming out than the first two plugs.
The threads on all of the plugs looked okay once they were out.
The engine was cold when I performed this plug change.
The plug on the left is new (obviously) and all four plug looked identical to the one on the right.
