Hmmm, I didn't know it was obsolete. Lots of people here as well as some tuners for XPT and Yimi Motorsports have recommended it. I know it does take a week to order and get the plugs.

Ha ha, that would have been a funny 911 call...help my finger is stuck in a rear cylinder of a flat 4 engine!

I did the same thing but I stuck my finger under the coil pack to guide the rubber boot onto the spark plug. Sometimes I had trouble getting it centered on the plug before the tried it with my finger. And yes I am a dumba** cause I cracked the porcelin when installing my new plug n the drivers side rear and had to reinstall my old one until I could order a new LFR7AIX plug and the reinstall that one. So I have had plenty of practice on the #4 cylinder

I just did the spark plug swap at 61K. Mine weren't too bad looking and I got the NGK LFR7AIX plugs for $34.99. My install time was about an hour and a half. After reading everyones notes carefully, it went pretty easy. I started the car and the CEL started blinking and my heart stopped...45 seconds later I realized I forgot the plug the MAF sensor back in All good and the car seems to idle more smoothly.
