I replaced the spark plugs and coil packs as a peace of mind project this Friday. I will share pics later today. I would love to get your feedback on conditions of my old plugs.

One note to add to the DIY, make sure you reconnect all DME connectors fully. I've seen several people post issues after completion. I too faced about 80 fault codes when I tried to start my car. 2 hours later I diagnose the problem was the middle DME connector (with the flap) was not seated correctly, where the bottom portion was open/off by 2mm. This caused all the errors. I disconnected and reconnected every connector to ensure all were seated perfectly. Cleared all the codes and now it's happy as can be.

Needless to say I shat a brick thinking I had fried my DME... Gook luck and definitely do this DIY to get to know your car.
