Do you change the plugs and boots that often or just the plugs?I agree, I change mine every 30k miles but that's just me. They are like tires, they start wearing out from day one.

Just the plugs and any boot that is shot which is usually none. I'm a "if it ain't broke don't fix it" kinda' guy and it has served me well. I also keep the plugs holes immaculate with a wood dowel, cloth, solvent, and drill setup. Dirty/wet plug holes are hard on boots.Do you change the plugs and boots that often or just the plugs?
The only reason those bad plugs fire at all is because each ignition sequence is something like 6 strikes of HV. So if the first does not take, 5 more sparks in a row. Of course the timing is delayed.Yep, I purchased a 2014 in August, and it was doing the same thing to me. Floor it, Check engine flashes, Stored misfire code, (I think in Cylinder 1&2). New plugs cured the problem. Old plugs were so worn out, some of them had a gap 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch wide, its a wonder they were firing at all. 8 new plugs later, purrs like a kitten, and roars like a lion when you floor it!!!

Me? I check them and reuse them if good and never had a problem doing that.I had the dealer change my plugs only at 45K , a pricey endeavor that did not include the boots. A while later I had misfires again until I replaced the boots. You are not saving money by ignoring the boots. The COP s I would leave alone unless I have a misfire with new plugs and boots. You can swap the COP easy enough to test it.
