Iridium are much tougher so they wear less, can use up to 60k km. If 100k km then use Iridium tough.
If changing normal, then better use normal plugs as Iridium cost at least RM140 per set, normal maybe RM30.... smile_tongue.gif

I have been noticing high Fuel Consumption lately for my ride. Only on Shell. Anyone notice the same?

Once upon a time, I used shell. Happened a fren recommended me another brand of petrol, I tried several tanks of it
and found it did give more mileage, about 5 - 10% extra. Since then, I no longer use shell. However, I found shell diesel
is good, better than Mobil diesel, there was a time I always drove diesel van and have tried both of them.

If you find it good, why did you stop using?

Oh.. I mean last time (quite long ago) I 've found Shell did gave less mileage than another brand of petrol, so I stopped using Shell. But lately, Shell has already launched a new formula and marketing strategy, emphasize that their fuel would give extra mileage.

I would like to make some amendment to the post above, as it maybe a bit confusing; smile_question.gif
