Dealer maintained at OEM intervals. Car runs pretty smooth but there is a very subtle dribble at idle that is probably due to never having the intake valves cleaned.

Did some spark plugs and I was curious so took a video with a boroscope on two of them.

Curiously, I think you can kind of see a QR code in this video?



 
I can't give you any advice on the pistons but I have to say that is pretty good resolution for a borescope cam.
 
The piston tops look fine. Surprised by the amount of carbon in the plug threads and around the plug seats. That’s a lot…

Would like to have seen the cylinder walls - that would be where problems are more likely to show up.
