Default high engine voice

hi there,
after tuneup my 2008 range rover sports, i feel my engine sound is higher than usual, my mechanic refused to use the bosch plugs, and he used (ngk), is this might be the reason ?? i smell gas in the muffler as if it is not fully burned. can someone help please.

I definitely prefer NGK. Can you describe the high pitch? Whining? Wooing noise? Whistling ?

it was like the usual engin voice but in higher mode. sounds like a school bus when pickup the kids and start moving.but we found one of the hoses was not attached properly, and now it is back to normal. thank you
