This depends on may variables. City VS highway, driving style etc.
Some plugs go end of life from deposits. Others run clean and are limited by electrode erosion. A plug that stays clean with electrodes that are erosion resistant are ideal.
The fuel in Canada is not as clean burning as in the US.
NGK bcpr6es11;'s are considered the best all around plug in the turbos.
It is a good idea to inspect plugs and know what they look like. If the dealer does plug replacement one can never know what is normal or not.
Turbo's run rich while on boost and this will create deposits. The plug heat range has to be high enough to burn these off while crusing off boost. City driving will produce darker plugs that highway driving.
