Check your coils a lot of them seem to go out around 30K and also check your plugs.

Looking fine won't cut it. Either do a search for the "how to check coils" thread or just get new ones.

I would do so at 30k............if they are the stock coils. But, I would be very tempted to test them first before spending the money.
