Rarely have I encountered such a complete, easy to follow, helpful instructional video than this. Thank you!

[@randychamberland1800]

Great instructions on doing this spark plug change out! I had no idea that so many components have to be removed to get to the plugs. I would never know how to get this apart without this video!

[@bradleymunger9809]

Good thorough explanation. Toyota dealer wants $1200 for at most a 2 hour job.

[@timothybechard7542]

Great video. I was a little apprehensive but your detailed instructions held tremendous.

Hey man, thx for the thorough tutorial. I subscribed. Appreciate the help homie!

[@1southsoon]

Great little tips that other peoples videos leave out.... Especially the windshield edge of the trim. To add a bit, the wiring harness clips are more easily removed with a pair of duck bill or even long nose pliers to squeeze both sides at the same time.

Q. Why can't you use an angled b(bendable) extensiion instaead of having to remove the wiper/cowl?

[@chemicalspore]

I seen a video of a guy get the plugs out less than 5 minutes. Crazy

[@ramindadseresht4074]

So you CAN replace PCV valve from top. All you have to do is remove five 10 mm airbox nuts, remove airbox. PCV valve is right under 2nd from right intake manifold plenum chamber. You need 22 mm or 7/8 inches deep socket 3/4 inch drive. It helps to disconnect throdle body wire connection and hose and bracket of the sensor at 2 o'clock position of the throdle body. The hardest part is to keep the 22 mm socket on the pcv valve since the pcv valve has a thin lips for the socket and a long neck.

Appreciate some of the minor details you showed like how those clips were removed. I know those spark plug gaps has to be 1.1 mm according to the manual but some mechanic also mentioned that not all new spark plugs are gapped correctly from the manufacturer, so I wonder if it is good to check them before installing. And you mentioned no anti seize needed? Thanks for the useful video.

[@JaboTheMechanic]

Glad it helped. Yes anti-seize to prevent it rusting inside the cylinder head

Can you change them without removing the windshield wipers

[@fredferret8998]

Oh dear..... I have a 2010 Prius and I have just changed the spark plugs without removing anything other than the plastic cover. If you have the right tools, you DO NOT need to remove the wipers and all of the other stuff. The four coil packs WILL all come out with a bit of a wiggle. You will need a decent 8mm plug socket and a selection of short extentions and universal joints to remove/refit the plugs. It CAN be done! Sorry Jabo.......

Where's your KZbin video?

[@whylie1555]

I don’t believe u. The coil is to long.

[@ronaldo77782]

My 2012 calls for 13 foot pounds for the spark plugs torque.

[@mfandrade007]

20 ftlb or 20Nm?

[@edwinbab705]

What happens if not change them my car has 230000 miles

[@Lasagna564]

Why do you have to remove all the front to get to the plugs??

[@JaboTheMechanic]

Bc you can't remove the ignition coils

[@osbaldolopez6007]

How do I reset the miles per gallon meter. After replacing spark plugs

[@JaboTheMechanic]

Hold the mph bottom next to the clock bottom

[@vidyanandmohabir915]

its zero bro, indicating the heat range of 20.

[@1961Marat]

Not so simple
