How do u check to see if they r goodIt can never hurt to put new plugs in, a good idea to see what your plugs look like at 40k and go from there.

Aright sounds good thanks for the advice nah my bf can tackle it i dont mess with anything under car hood other then oil change or wiper fluids lolI changed mine out based on the factory interval. you can pickup a set of OEM plugs off of rockauto for around $45 CAD so it's a pretty cheap maintenance item.
It's a straightforward DIY if you want to tackle it yourself.

Thank you appreciated your helpIf you do end up ordering from Rock Auto, make sure you use the 5% off coupon. Also order anything else you might need like wipers or filters since you are paying for shipping.

Yeah so possibly at 80k km or 90k km for me then? As mine is automatic not manual
I will do them earlier, like 20k miles. I do not like the idea of anything (especially threaded things) sitting in my engine for 60k miles. I definitely want to get some anti-seize compound on those threads ASAP.
See i called a vw specialist of a mechanic that i dealt with before for a full transmission flush and new one in etc he said no too early probably at 90 to 120 thousand in km clicks no idea who to believe lolPersonally, if OP is going to pull them out and inspect, at 71k, I'd just go ahead and replace them anyway no matter what they look like. it's near enough to the interval.

I read maintenance booklet too that came with my car and it stated otherwise literally said every 4 years whatever km you are on you change it didnt say in km intervals just said every 4 years is...My 2017 schedule for all vehicles except electric for USA (included booklet with manual) states every 40k Spark plugs should be replaced in the 1.8 and 2.0T. Shopdap.com says 60k and I can't seem to find my revised maintenance card to double check. I changed mine out at 40k, granted I picked the car up used and figured it was cheap preventative maintenance on a car I knew little about, YMMV.
And 40k what miles or kmHow do u check to see if they r good
