FWIW, I just had spark plugs and coil packs done on my 2016 Jetta, $185 out the door at my local dealership
Pros: reasonable price
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
I had a 2012 Passat I drove for 10 years (after buying used with ~20K miles) and only just replaced two weeks ago with ~125k miles. I had to replace the alternator at one point and some other general stuff like spark plugs over the years, but that was it really. Nothing super expensive.
Pros: nothing super expensive
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Mileage: 125000 km
im at 95k with the original plugs. no issues
Pros: no issues, lasted 95k miles
Mileage: 152887 km
I waited till like 100k to do my spark plugs on my 2013 Crosstrek, they were still good just not as efficient
Pros: lasted 100k miles, still good
Cons: less efficient at high mileage
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 160934 km
Just traded in my 2015 Forester with 219,000 miles and the original spark plugs.

Normally that's a result of a failed spark plug seal. If you have no other problems I would put new spark plugs in it and check them at the next oil change.
Vehicle:
Subaru Impreza

Pros: vw is running great

The factory spark plugs are honestly shit in terms of longevity.

I just came across a recent problem while doing my spark plugs at 80,000 miles. The dealership was the one that did my spark plugs at 40,000 miles. Sure enough, they broke Cylinder 3\u2019s wiring harness connector to the coil pack and stripped the bolt. I had to helicoil the bolt, replace the connector, and repin the connector.
Pros: connector replaced, bolt helicoiled
Cons: connector broken, bolt stripped
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 128748 km
