Default 30,000 Mile service - and they Give you Bosch 4-way plugs??

Thanks for folks' response on un-chipping my car for service. Other question is that I wanted to put in the bosch 4-way spark plugs. The service guy said "oh, they are included in your 30,000 mile service". Is this true?? Or should I go buy my own and give them to the dealer to install? Also, how do I know (hate to think it) that they won't end up in the mechanic's car and not my own? Lastly, any tips on things I shold ask them to check for?

Thanks in advance!!

PS - on the fog light Mod, save yourself the cost of SilverVision Bulbs and the adapter - just lightly glaze the amber bulbs with chrome paint - works great with over 100 hours being lit with no discoloration.

Default shouldn't be included

I doubt Audi would pay for them as the evidence is pretty clear they don't do anything. Perhaps Bosch just gave the dealer a bunch of free samples or something.

More likely I think the dealer is mistaken. You'll get Platinums but not +4s.

I would hope to get NGK, they were the OEM plug on the old beater C4 Audi.

Default Am I the only one whos car does not call for plugs at 30K?

My 2001 2.7T maintanance schedule does not call for plugs until 40K miles. What gives? I assumed that it was due to scheduled maintanance being included until 36,000 miles.
