Enough was enough for a car with a twin turbo 400hp engine that cost $100K you should be able to trust it, so we took it to the dealership. They said there was a recall coming out on the 2009 7ers spark plugs! They went ahead and replaced them, the car is like a whole new car! He is going to be receiving a letter about it, so I'd assume others will be too.

Just wanted to give everyone a head up about it!!
Can you let us know what the spark plugs did for the car? Did it smooth it out, give more power, etc? Note that this engine has been in the X6 and there was no spark plug recall...
