Spark plug NGK or OEM Honda
Got my 2019 Civic 1.5T to 93k miles and sold it this fall. Great car. Probably had some oil dilution because dipstick level would creep up. No CVT problems (drain and fill were done at 45k & 90k). Replaced plugs at 90k as well and they looked good although there was a little oil in cylinder 3. Ran great, no codes, high quality oil changes every 5k.
On my Honda Fit that would be an excellent price because you have to take off a cowl to get to the plugs.
I plan on doing the spark plugs soon just picked up NGK Iridium plugs.
I put in NGK Lazer Iridium in mine about 60k ago and they've been fine.
I had to pull champions that were hardly worn. NGK ran a lot better.
Personally I’m running EQT’s stage 1+ tune and I just went with the recommended plugs (NGK 4905s) for peace of mind. I think it’s worth the extra couple bucks for my sanity
I'm using oem ngk plugs changing every 2nd oil change so around 16,000km
just did my wife’s Nissan rogue and it needed NGK spark plugs that were around $35 each.
I stopped buying plugs from eBay and Amazon years ago after getting what I can only assume was a bunk set for my BMW. They looked the part, but caused the engine to run rough.
I stopped buying “NGK Iridium” plugs on eBay AND Amazon a while back. They’re nearly all chinesium knockoffs.
