Default did mine Monday, big props to KSpider & others for the great write up!

Write up made it a piece of cake, especially for someone like moi who has never changed plugs before. I can't believe dealer charges so much for something so easy. Biggest PIA of the job was those T25 screws. Biggest improvement I noticed was a "cleaner" startup sound. BTW, I had ~38k when I changed em<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4b6/msgs/429527.phtml">link to KSpider's write up</a></li></ul>

Thanks for the props - the T25 screws are by far the majority of the job.

Not much difference. Although it idles completely smooth now, it used to shake a small bit.

Default Yes, big props to KSpider - instructions were perfect!

Did mine today and the step-by-step guide was great. 2 hours to complete.
