Excellent video. Loved the step by step. Great camera work and explanations of what you were doing. This saved me HUNDREDS of dollars. It was a total pain in the a$$ but glad I was able to do it. One note, on the PCV hose. If you do happen to break it, it's not a big deal. The part is about $20 at the dealership and it's super easy to replace. Thanks again for the great tutorial!

Appreciate it! Thanks for the comment! And parts like that its usually not the price thats the problem….its the inconvenience of obtaining it mid-job 🤣

Thank You So much sir! Took me 6 hrs to get everything done including oil & filters change. You saved me lots of money. Here in San Antonio TX the Jeep dealer charges only 399$ for the plugs replacement , plus something extra for removing all that stuff. Thanks a lot !!! Blessings

Misfired on a road trip, pulled over at O'Reilly, your video convinced me not to try swapping plugs on the side of the road. Thanks for sharing.

Your amazing at tutorials bro as a fellow mechanic I'm doing one of these later today and I didn't wanna buy the Haynes manual your the man. I like to watch it live because I'd rather be safe rather than be liable for a broken tube or whatever. Your the man bro thanks a million you got a sub from me.

Nice video. Why no dielectric grease in the plug boots? I just replaced the plugs in my 2018 GC earlier today for the first time, coming up on 100,000 miles. I used anti-seize and dielectric grease. Also replaced the PCV valve. It was much easier to do that with the intake manifold out of the way. I retired my spark plug sockets with the rubber boot. As in your video, they kept falling out. I now use a 5/8" magnetic spark plug swivel socket. It works great.

Yea man this video was the last time I utilized that socket lol. And I’m just not a fan of dielectric grease. If you want to use it, thats perfectly fine..I’m not opposed if someone wants too. It’s just not necessary, and from my experiences with it I just don’t like it. I used to utilize like 13-17 years ago, and from my experience it just kinda gets gross and nasty over time. It also doesn’t come on coils stock from the factory, so personally I just don’t utilize it.

Awesome videos, thank you. When do you recommend transmission/ differential/ transfer case fluid replacement on these jeeps?

@danielnassif9729 5 ай бұрын

Also have you ever done a radiator on this wk2? If so , does the bumper need to come off? Lastly do you have a video of that removal and install?

@TheOriginalBeeCee 5 ай бұрын

I would suggest every 30K on all the fluids. The maintenance schedule guide for the vehicles suggests 30k intervals for diff/transfer case. And I haven’t done a radiator on one of these yet, so I’m not quite sure tbh.

Going to the shop tomorrow.. how long should it take to to replace all the spark plugs? Just trying to get an idea of the labor cost.

@TheOriginalBeeCee 2 ай бұрын

Thats a very subjective question based on many factors. You could go to 3 different shops and get 3 very different quotes. If you don’t plan on doing it yourself i would call around and get 4-5 quotes, and then go with the most reasonable that has good reviews.

@Rshen11 2 ай бұрын

@@TheOriginalBeeCee thanks.. jeep dealer wanted $1200.. i called 2 shopes already .. all under $500..

@TheOriginalBeeCee 2 ай бұрын

@@Rshen11 thats not a bad price! Anything under $500 is pretty reasonable IMO. But just remember cheapest doesn’t mean best lol….a wise person once said you get what you pay for. So make sure they have a good reputation/reviews to back it up.

It's about 350 just for the parts in my area and I'm sure it would be well worth 500 having done it on mine a couple of different times when changing the plugs and oil filter housing. . All those electrical connectors, hoses and tight bolt spaces make this not a particularly super easy job in my humble opinion. Great video.

@Rshen11 Ай бұрын

@JD_Spencer yes got it done for about 600 with everything.. spark plugs ignition coil and filter.. we'll worth it

Just wanted to let everyone know this works on the v6 2021 durangos as well! I was able to wiggle the gray thing bolted to the front of the manifold, I didn’t have the tool to remove the studs so it is do able.

Should I remove the battery before repairing?

@TheOriginalBeeCee 2 ай бұрын

No need to do that. You can just disconnect the negative battery terminal however if it makes you feel better!!

@Usuario7251 2 ай бұрын

Question with a mechanic guy how much should it cost? Any approximate?

@TheOriginalBeeCee 2 ай бұрын

With a mechanic-guy aye?! 😆 really subjective question though. Probably could be anywhere from $500-$2000 depending on where you went. Definitely not going to be a cheap job in a shop.

@ssantanello1 8 ай бұрын

I know you didn’t do it here, but do you recommend replacing the ignition coils while you’re in there if you’re around that 125k mark? I feel like it’d be a major pain in the ass to do this all again when they fail inevitably soon.

@TheOriginalBeeCee 8 ай бұрын

Personally, I do not. Regardless of whats involved with this job. When it comes to ignition coils, I don’t look at them like a maintenance item or “tune-up” part to replace…i look at them like……if they aint broke, dont fix them. Thats just my opinion of course. I’ve seen many vehicles make it too 200k, 250k+ with the OE coils…with no issues. So they aren’t something in my experience that fail frequently enough to warrant replacing them all as preventive maintenance (unless of course they are a known problematic issue for a particular vehicle). Coils are something I wouldn’t cheap out on either, so to replace 6 coils in a job like this with something reputable wouldn’t be too cheap.

@ssantanello1 8 ай бұрын

Definitely makes sense, thanks! I appreciate the thoroughness of the video. Gives me a little more confidence when I’m ready to tackle it myself.
