Default Major Service @ Dealer

I took my truck in for it's 100,000km service. Had the tranny fluid and filter done, coolant, ect. And they asked If I wanted a major tune up. Which included a MAF cleaning, new computer flash, motor vac to clean the plugs so they can be removed easier, and new plugs. But they would only do it if it was needed.

Found out that 7 of the 8 plugs broke and needed a extra 2 hrs of labor to dig them out. The plugs and labor cost $527.

My question is, is this normal for a 06 5.4L ? Would different plugs end up with the same problem ?

But in the end, after paying a $1400 service bill the truck runs and shifts better then it ever did when I got it 6 mo. ago with 80,000km on it.

I can't wait for my new CS to show up, add my CAI and custom tunes.

A truck with this may km's on it and it still feels new. I am very pleased with it so far. Does anyone think I will have any isues with the programer and having so many km's on the truck??

Oh yeah, this is my first post. Hi !
