I just called a parts store and I was quoted a price of $25 per plug.
I just bought the vehicle a few months ago and want to change plugs. 4
cylinder Vtech Accord 4 door . The plug referenced in the manual is
NGK PZFR5F-11. OEM is a good thing but this is ridiculous. Could
someone give me an alternative please. Thanks

Check at Autozone. In my area this plug cost about $10.00 US. If there
is no Autozone near you can mail order from them.

In Canada: NAPA, Canadian Tire, Bumper to Bumper, PartSource (which is
Canadian Tire).
If you just got the car, put a can of injector cleaner in it too.

go online to Advance Auto or partsamerica.com and check their plug
offerings and prices. Rock Auto is another good online parts source.

And whatever you do, DON'T substitute any non-NGK, non-platinum, $3 plugs.

Use the correct part number NGK plug.
