I have had my 2009 Scion XB for almost 2 years. I only have 10,000 miles on it and have had two services done. When do I need to change the park plugs? It doesn't say anything about it in the maintenance book. Thanks a lot

    Scion says 120,000 miles.

    My opinion is that waiting that long would be ridiculous. Being highly proactive, I would suggest somewhere between 60,000 and 75,000 miles as a good time to replace the plugs to maintain optimum performance and prevent any issues from occurring.
