Two points:
1) Does direct injection/TFSI have anything to do with this (carbon buildup)?
2) I have seen a number of discussions on this forum re: the merits of Audi Care, but to my recollection getting your 2.0 spark plugs replaced at 35K miles is not mentioned. Knowing what I now know from this thread, I think this is a major reason for new 2.0 owners to get Audi Care. Does anyone know what it costs to have an Audi dealer replace the 4 plugs if you don't have Audi Care?

2) Audi Care will cover anything listed in the scheduled maintenance as found in the warranty and maintenance booklet. IIRC, the cost for a service that includes a tune/spark plug replacement etc.would run around $400-$500 or so at the dealer. That would include oil change and the other 35K or 55K maintenance items (mileage depending on model).

2014 Audi Q5 TDI Spark Plug Replacement Interval?
Hi,
Do you guys know what the spark plug replacement interval is for a 2014 Audi Q5 TDI? On the audi maintenance schedule pdf the section for spark plugs appears to be incorrect. It does show replace at 35K, but according to the dealer they don't replace at 35K. Any idea when it's truly suggested to replace spark plugs? Thanks much.

Whatever you do, do not buy spark plugs at Advance Auto, Auto Zone etc.
I only found the official dealership NGK's to work properly.
