Huh. When were the plugs last changed?
Daytona RS6 C5 Avant. Viper'd, Billies, Waggers, MTM box brain, C6 stoppers, xcarlink, R8 coolant cap (woohoo)
///M3 E46 | XC90 (V8, natch) | Passat GTE | RR Classic V8 flapper

I actually have no idea !

All the service records I have seem to detail everything from oil and filters but I don't have a single record of plugs being changed ! Even in the services done by Audi which were right up until 2015 !

Also found a reciept I was glad I never had to pay ! £5.5k ! Which was a leak around the oil coolant pipes, so engine came out and all replaced. Scary bill !
