Interesting Observation: HEMI Spark plug maint.

[Batt4Christ]

My 2013 specified spark plugs @ 30k miles.

My new 2014 specifies plugs @ 100k

I take it MOPAR changed to platinum plugs?

Interesting!

Iridiums even.

No more copper? That would save a lot of money on service at the dealership.

That's good to know. I guess I bought at the right time.

That was one of the primary reasons I ended up choosing a 5.7 over the Ecodiesel. I was trading in a 2013 Laramie Longhorn 5.7L to upgrade to a 2014 Laramie Longhorn with the 5.7/8 speed combo.

When the Salesman explained the plug interval changed on the 2014 to 100,000 miles, I had to verify it with the Service Manager. He confirmed it thus the numbers to run a 5.7 became even more attractive. Granted, I don't think I'll leave them in there for the full 100,000 miles as Chevrolet has encountered plenty of problems with plugs snapping off when removed after 100,000 miles, but even if one replaced them at 60,000 or 75,000 miles we're miles ahead of the original 30,000 mile change of the pre-2014 models.

Dammit.. Just hit 30k....

I have a late model 2013 (waited for the 8 speed). The regular manual says 30k but there is a supplement that says 100k. Guess I should pull one and see what's in there.

Hi hemi8lonestar,

Was that in your manual or on a site somewhere? If on the web do you have a link?

Thanks,

There is a supplement to the manual that has the 100k interval.I have it too.

Looks like when I change my plugs in my 2013 I will be buying the plugs for the 2014

Its the same interval for the 2013. Check the white supplement manual that came with the truck.

 

[Talon_66]

2013 is 100k miles?

 

[hemi8lonestar]

It was in the owners manual.

 

[BlownGP]

What is the part number for the 2013+ plugs?>

 

[Batt4Christ]

My 2013 did not have a supplement stating 100k. Service dept also said 30k on that '13

My 2013 Ram Sport was built on December 17, 2012 and my sparkplug change states 30,000 miles or 48,000 kilometers in owners manual and in the white maintenance booklet . If you miss page 1 in the white maintenance booklet it has a second sparkplug change on page 2 at 98,000 kilometers.

Can us 2013 guys switch our plugs to the new 100k ones?
