Ahhh. Much better now

Just got my SL65 back after having the coil pack and plugs changed.

Power seems to come on faster. Mechanic said my plugs were in real bad shape. Only 35K on the clock.

Makes you wonder if it really has 35k on the clock. Lots of people able to rollback odometers electonically these days.

The condition of the car and interior don't lie. It's perfect accept for the one V12 badge that came off the floormat but was wrapped and left in glove box.

The carfax for the car showed the yearly dealer visits that also captured the mileage. It lined up with the 27,100 that was on it when I bought last August.

I've also heard it is nearly impossible to hack and rollback.

Post pics of the plugs. I'm curious what they look like. I have 28K on my SL. I haven't inspected the plugs but I did replace the leaky valve cover vent housing and valve covers while I was in there.

I don't have them to take pics of.
