There were some minor differences to the measurements of the 12,000 km service, which I suppose to be more or less measurement errors.

However, those iridium spark plugs, which should be changed every 24,000 km are really expensive! One is 45 € (49 USD).

Are they really iridium sparks, which Honda installed?
I guess no, 'cause I pulled one out, to see in which condition it was in round about at 12.000km and it doesn't look like the one I know.

Instead of this I found a spark which Honda recommends for 14,95€ in an online shop.
Somewhere in the future I will change them, but as long everything runs well....

Here it is part 11, Honda-part-no.: 31908-MGC-003

The NGK LMAR 8 A-9S could be a substitute:

That's only 26 €, if you're brave.

(Disclaimer: I just found this information by looking around, it is not my knowledge and I don't give any recommendation. You are on your own.)

For myself, I guess, the first 200,000 km I prefer genuine Honda parts.
