All 4 air filters looked fine also.
26k miles on them, 2 years 3 months.
2 cabin up front, 2 engine in the rear.
I was surprised how good everything looked.
The piece of mind and experience was worth it.

Yes, it is.

For the Iridium plug they look like they will work, but you will want to make sure that they are not too long before installing them. They must be exactly the same length and diameter. If they aren't, don't use them as it could cause issues. I'm looking at the Denso cross reference chart as a reference for this plug:

Torx T30 coil
And I don't remember which small metric socket to get the heat shield bolts.

I used them on my previous 996 model and loved them. Haven't changed the plugs in my current car yet, but when I do, I believe I will use them again.
