Default Spark Plug Replace video

Has anyone replaced the spark plugs on a 2016 NX 200t? Although I only have 16k on the car the mtce. schedule says to change them at 40k. If you have step by step procedures or better yet a video that would be great. It should be somewhat easy on the 4 cylinder engine.

Any help would be appreciated!

The OEM replacement Plugs lasts a while and people are surprised that they still look good when they are retrieved. However, for peace of mind, we schedule them to be replaced per OEM recommendation.

what is your recommendation for at how many miles you should change them. I believe the manual says 40K.

Come on my man... gotta dig a little. Found this on youtube:

Recommended change in the manual states 40k miles. Change them at 40k miles... Doesn't matter what anyone else says on what they do. After pulling them out at 40k they look fine, you could probably run them all the way to 80-100k miles... Spark plugs are cheap. Installing new sparks plugs is super easy and isn't time consuming at all on these vehicles. Change them out per manufacture's recommendation and don't think too crazy about it.
