Spark plug replacement

[whiskie]

Just replaced my stock sparks. Noticed that they were in a terrible condition. Should have replaced them earlier. Engine runs smoother after the change. For folks who has not changed out your sparks for more than 50k mileage, it would be good to take a look at the condition. Maybe it's because of my driving habits that causes this. Anyway, will replace them at a much shorter interval the next time. Stock plugs are Beru with 0.7mm gap. There are many cross reference brand parts available in the market.

Attached a photo of one of the plugs.

My old E60 520/2.2 needed change only 100k km. Now the turbo engine recommended change interval is 50k km. Yes change early get best performance and consumption.
