'07 Ram 1500 4x4 - Spark Plugs
I have 130,000 miles on the Ram now. I bought it with 50,000 miles on it. I need to change the spark plugs. Does anyone have any recommendations? Is there 8 or 16? I don't have the manual. I was told 8 are iridium and 8 are regular plugs.
The other question is I have never changed the transmission fluid. My mechanic buddy says not to do it now. It will cause me problems.

Does this guy also recommend the outdated 3,000-mile oil change interval as well? He doesn't appear very "solid".
As for the "8 Iridium and 8 regular plugs" -- well, that isn't the stock configuration, nor is it recommended.

I disagree with what the mechanic said about not servicing the transmission. That's just a recipes for disaster down the road that can lead to a large repair bill.

Well I'm ASE certified and I'm saying your mechanic buddy is an a$$. While I'm not in favor of flushing a transmission at that age you definitely need to do a pan drop, drain and refill.
The only time I've seen this cause a problem is when the gasket installs after we're screwed up. Maybe your buddy has messed up a few gaskets and caused his own issues???
