During the 4206f recall all I got was a flash on my '05 sport m/t. Since I bought my car in Apr the recall states my plugs were supposed to have been replaced during FQI.
Does anyone know if I really would have gotten the upgraded leading plugs (#7) back in Apr? How can I check? If I don't have them how does this work with the flash?

 

Take one out and have a look. The newer leading plugs have notches. In the thread below the first two photos show what the newer leading plugs look like.

the newer plugs were being installed in the factory starting on 2005 models, you'll only get new plugs if you have old ones or if you have new style and they need replacing

 

Thanks for the help.
Two questions - In the recall it lists leading plug as part NGK RE7C-L. When I pull the part off Finish Line it lists plugs as NGK RE7A-L. I guess the new '05 plug is the one listed in the recall?
Is it hard to change plugs without taking off the left front, or is that the best way?
It can't be as bad as fighting your way around the old ignition shielding on a Chevy small block!

 

I removed my driver side front wheel. That gets you access to the two sparks in the front rotor. The rear rotor I had to go under the car to reach properly. It looked like it would be a pain in the *** when I started, but it was very easy... There is a DIY on the board that has pics.

 

NGK RE7C-L are the current leading OEM plugs for the RX-8. The NGK RE7A-L where the ones first put in the 2004's . Also taking off the front left wheel is the best way to get at them.

 

edit: or the tech pocketed them .... been known to happen
