Hi,
When one spark plug is diagnosed to be bad and replaced, is it a good idea to replace ALL the plugs?
I ask this because my 2017 Hyundai Elantra SE 2.0, with just 40,000 miles, started misfiring and gave out a code "P0301- cylinder 1 misfired detected". The dealer replaced the ignition coil (covered still under Hyundai's 5YR/60K warranty) and the spark plug. But they just replaced the one plug in cylinder 1 and I was wondering if all 4 plugs really should have been replaced all at the same time?? This service solved the problem and the engine is running normal again.
Thoughts?
Thanks
