Depth at 4mm is fairly good, almost 50% of your original tread depth.

I would not change it if I were you. Change around 2-3mm still more reasonable but do be aware of the drawbacks.

What is your main requirements?

CC7 more for comfort while XM2+ has good wear & wet balance.

would you recommend changing if tyre is old (>3yrs on road), but rarely driven? long way to go before botak
so far didnt notice drying or cracking

and if say I want to change, got recommend quiet tyre?
not that important on grip, since rarely go above 120km
currently using primacy 4 and its very good for me

No, 3 years is still fairly young. A tire should be able to do at least 10 years.
Primacy 4 is definitely the top grip + comfort tire. Depending on your size Continental's Comfort Contact 7 would be ideal but lacks the grip power of Primacy 4.

I see, tyre shop trying to convince me after 3-4yrs better change...
