need some advice?

the car is at 61k. i did a full service at 52k expect for the plugs. the car has Platinum plugs and i know they a good for 100k but on a cold start, once in a while i have to turn the key about 2 or 3 times in order to start. i dont think its the starter because the dealer changed it when i first bought the car at 38k. so should i replace the plugs or take it to nissan and have them look at it. BY the way the car a still under warrenty until 72k.

Definitely at least check the plugs. They are said to last until 100K but that is not 'lasting at peak performance'.
