Ever notice that when the manufacture pays for maintenance the intervals get longer.
when you pay it gets shorter
funny how it works?

On the positive side, it is a super easy DIY.

I suppose the mentioned 991.2s were not GT3s, as this maintenance schedule says 2 years for plugs, not 4:

The plug socket that NEANICU suggested(FCP Euro) just arrived. That is a really nice tool and great fit on the spark plug.
