If it is a warranty issue and they are fixing it due to that, of course they don't want to replace the plugs, they are known to break.

so that is why they are prolonging this. i have run an obd check and nothing shows up. not even a misfire. so what am i looking for as far as me changing the plugs. or should i push the the dealer to do it?

Search this forum. There has been a lot of discussion on this issue. There are also many tips on how to DIY the spark plugs pretty problem free.

what does the dealership have to say about the rough idle, running (ie. what did they diagnose the problem as?)
