As if
the spark plugs were too low down in the engine.
Since the problem started, i've had problems with the dealership, when
the spark plugs broke, they changed them without futher looking into the problem.
Platinum and iridium tips tend to last longer - copper tends to erode over time so
the spark plugs wear out - plus they're slightly better conductors and can produce a spark under...
I just remembered this was a question - re-charging the battery, changing out
the spark plugs, and cleaning the MAF fixed this.

As you go from left to right with the metals, you can expect
these spark plugs to last longer, but they will cost more as well.
You should always check the gap to ensure it is correct on new
spark plugs no matter where you get them from.
