Hi all.
Just having my sons GT86 serviced at my local Toyota dealer. Its done 83,000 miles but never had the plugs changed, he’s only had it about 4 months. So, I’ve opted to swap out fuel filter change & instead have the plugs done for same cost. I think the plugs are more important in this case, also a big job I Believe as engine needs to be lift slightly due to where plugs are.
What I would like to know please, is there a Toyota specialist in or around the New Forest where I can get fuel filter done. Or could any half decent garage do this job. Perhaps in a few months.
Thanks for any help.

Reason for the decision, plugs never been done & fuel filter only due now so can wait a while longer in my opinion.

A lot of people report the plugs looking fine when they come out. They can be done diy if the cost is too prohibitive?

Also, I'd be very surprised that the plugs didn't get done when the spring valve recall was completed? Most owners chose to do them then.
