6th cylinder oil spark plug question

Yes my title is off, I'm still half asleep.

Im bringing my coupe in (06) for warranty work (driver side window actuator is a bit loose), and I was reading up on chicagoZ about oil getting into the 6th cylinder.
Before I bought the car, (not even a month ago), it this car was resting on the car lot for 4 months, it has new tires etc and i changed all the fluids but didnt check the plugs, should I have them warranty this and mention it as well? Or should it be okay?

If i do mention it, should I mention it the wednesday coming up that I bring it in? Or mention it to them earlier such as tomorrow so that they can add that to the list?

I bought the car with 23k on it, now it has 24.5k on it.
This should still be under warranty right?

Sidenote:
my car is stock engine wise, all i have is a chrome z-tube.
That shouldnt void warranty right?
The infiniti dealership guys know I work next door to them and are pretty nice to me, but I'm just looking out for myself, before I bring it in.
Thank you.

Stealership visit....caution!

Vip....having a chrome z-tube shouldn't have any effect on your warranty,
but your G may not enjoy ingesting heated air.... I've never seen any
auto manufacture warranty spark plugs, you could ask them to check their
condition. Just because you work next door doesn't mean they won't charge
you for that service, nice guys or not. G/L

Hey Gary, thanks for the headsup
Yeah Im sure stealership is still a stealership.
I'm just basically asking, if my car was sitting on the lot for 4 months (given it had test drives here and there) and the porters there must rotate cars there at least 1x a week...
Do you think I will have this oil issue in the plug, or no?
Thank you much in advance!

If it's not a big worry, (I don't even have a CEL or rough idles, etc- drives perfect) then I would much rather just have them fix my driver side window actuator issue.

I wouldn't worry about it unless it was at some small dealership that doesn't get any traffic. If a car is driven once a week and running for several minutes it should be fine.
