Your engine’s performance heavily depends on a tiny but crucial component: the spark plug. Responsible for igniting the air-fuel mixture in the engine’s combustion chamber, spark plugs play a vital role in starting your car and keeping it running efficiently.
🔧 Why Spark Plug Replacement Is Important
Over time, spark plugs wear out or become dirty, leading to:
Hard starting
Engine misfires
Poor fuel efficiency
Rough idling
Reduced acceleration
Replacing them on time ensures smoother performance and can help prevent more costly engine issues.
⏰ When Should You Replace Spark Plugs?
Typically, spark plugs should be replaced every:
30,000 to 50,000 km for standard plugs
100,000+ km for platinum or iridium plugs
However, always refer to your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendation for the most accurate interval.
