Would using the occurance and frequency of missfires be a good indicator that the plugs need replacing? IIRC I was seeing a missfire per week when my plugs had about 30k on them. After I changed them, no more missfires.

I've found the 2.7T engine eats spark plugs like they're candy. They're
platinum and $11 a pop at the dealer. Can't say I would recommend any
other plug other than stock. I changed mine out every 20k miles. You can
go longer but you can almost sneeze at an S4 engine and it misfires while
idling. They're very sensetive to injector clogging and spark plug gaps.
As always- YMMV... :)
