This is a long shot, but, the only way that I can think of plugs making a noise is if they are too loose and are rattling! This will make you lose some compression and you won't get the best ignition..... Unlikely, but the only way I can think of plugs being noisey!

Plugs making a noise? WTF?

If your mixture is wrong there is a problem. Price depends on what the problem is.

Is it running ok?

What are the symptoms?

Just reset your ECU to recalibrate the air/fuel mixture. You do this by disconnecting the battery/ECU fuse for and hour and reconnecting. Then start it up and let it idle, without revving it.

Only thing is, with modern cars, something is wrong if your air/fuel mix is not perfect. Maybe your lambda sensor or one of the temp sensors.

What sound are your plugs making?

Did you get your gasket done?
