REPLACING SPARK PLUGSGUID-1EB23356-F5F5-4C2A-851B-89F31CA66D80If replacement is required, see an INFINITI
retailer for servicing.
Iridium-tipped spark plugsGUID-DDA1D9CF-9C6B-4DD6-B89F-D4A52E0AB799It is not necessary to replace the iridium-
tipped spark plugs as frequently as the
conventional type spark plugs since they
will last much longer. Follow the main-
tenance schedule in “INFINITI Service and
Maintenance Guide”, but do not reuse
them by cleaning or regapping.
