2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Spark Plug 3.6L Pentastar Replacement How-To

This video will show you how to replace the spark plugs and upper intake gaskets on the 3.6L Pentastar engine Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles. This was done on a 2018 but parts used in this video will cover the 2011-2018 3.6L Pentastar engine. This procedure will also work for various years and models of Dodge, Jeep, and Chrysler vehicles that used the 3.6L Pentastar engine includeing the Journey, 300, Charger, Durango, Wrangler, Gladiator, Town & Country van, Challenger, Pacifica, Voyager, Ram 1500, and Ram Promaster van. Spark plugs and intake gaskets were purchased from Amazon and I have provided a link to those parts below.

Cannot thank you enough for taking the time to go step by step, showing clear camera angles. Saved me hundreds, maybe thousands changing my plugs and coils!

[@Ch-ed7ek]

Awesome tutorial, and many thanks. I had a bad misfire in cylinder 2, and car would barley run. Shop quoted me like $800 for the job because of the work, but I found this video and just put it on my iPad in the engine bay and followed steps by step and did it myself with no mechanic experience. Took me about 4.5 hours with breaks in between, but was worth saving the money. Replaced all 6 plugs and coils. Seems to be running fine now, had original OEM plugs, and they were in really rough shape for 110k miles. Still had the engine light on after, but wasn’t blinking like before. Drove it to a local shop and still said misfire, but he cleared the codes, and it hasn’t come back on so far.

Having just completed it I would have to say yes this is ridiculous and the old adage remains every engineer building a car should have to service every item. Try changing the lightbulbs in this car. There’s a reason the dealership charges $300.

Thank you so much for sharing this video. After I saw all your steps, I took the park plugs and the coils back to autozone. I hired a mechanic to do this for me and it cost us about $1300 I was so freaking mad. New cars are not like the old days, meaning easy to change spark plugs and headlamps.

Nice job, right to the point. no foolish comedy or heavy metal music in the background. Very helpful, thanks for taking the time to do it.

I am so grateful that I've finally come across your video. Other videos i came across weren't recorded very well, and they skipped important parts that made me question if i should even try myself. Your video is recorded so perfectly, and your work is so on point that it gives me the confidence to do this job for the very first time. I have a 2018 Dodge Durango SXT, and it's the same engine as the 2018 Jeep in your video. I'm in NYC, and before i came across these videos, the mechanic's was giving me an estimated price of 600 to $700 for this type of work, so thank you and you earned a new subscriber

[@Dylan-on8xh]

Great video and awesome camera work. Dealership quoted about $750 to do the plugs alone a few months back so I decided to do it myself whenever the CE light came on. Me and my dad followed the video today and knocked it out in about 3 hours of working time. Took our time and went slow to make sure we did it correctly but was an enjoyable afternoon activity with my old man. The 10mm bolt on the side mount that was missing in this video was present in mine. Not hard to get to, but almost if not totally impossible to get back on. Not worth the stress and headache to try IMO for anyone else who encounters it. For the 8mm in the back of the intake manifold I used a stubby 1/4” drive and got it easily, no problem. Total costs in parts for the plugs and gaskets (which you should definitely do since you’re already there) was about $100. Great video. Much appreciated.

[@tdpisme]

You just saved me a ton of cash from having the dealer do it. Took me about 3½ hours because this was my first time changing spark plugs on this vehicle. If I ever have to donl it again it'll be much quicker. Thanks again!!

[@fredforsythe5440]

Followed the video and did this yesterday. There were a couple of small differences between the 2018 in the video and my 2017. Mine had the missing 10mm on the passenger side of the engine, but it was impossible to get it back in. The dealer must have a special tool to do this. Thanks again for a great video. Brakes are next.

[@zachpihl72]

Great video! I've owned several GCs, currently a WK2 3.6. I really miss the simplicity of older Jeep 4.0s!

[@DBrees0]

Quick tip on starting the plugs. Use an 8-12 inch piece of 3/8 fuel hose instead of the plug socket to start them. Then use a regular 5/8 deep well socket to tighten. You can't crossthread the plug and your socket won't get stuck on the plug.

[@Ada-zn3pw]

Great video. I did this job 3 years ago on my 13 Grand Cherokee and no videos were available back then. I now have an 18 Grand Cherokee that I'm going to do. I think I took my cowl off last time there at the top of firewall. Not a difficult job but takes some time. Thanks again.

[@Mark-fl3kx]

Wow! How I long for the good old days. Took 20 minutes at most to change the plugs. This is crazy.

[@chalupabatman2989]

This was great. Thanks! Easily the worst spark plug job I've ever done. Vapor cannister purge harness broke from dry rot. If that happens to anyone else, probably will only find it at dealership or Mopar direct. I was able to patch it. Cut off the dry rotted end of the hose and remove. Clean the connector. 0.5" ID heater hose is a good fit with the barbed connector. Used high temp tape lapped over the heater hose joint with the existing hose for good measure. All done, no CEL. Might not bother ordering part ~$50.

Just finished up on my 2018 JGC 93000 miles, don't know what kind of maintenance was done prior to me getting it..changed plugs AND coils and the manifold gaskets/seals..also thoroughly cleaned the EGR valve which was gunked up and very dirty...I also took the opportunity to change the PCV valve knowing that the intake manifold had to be removed anyways...after putting everything back together I realized I should have gotten the PCV hose and changed that too...getting one this week and replacing the old one...GDI engines are notorious for clogging up lines and valves with oil....next project...transmission fluid and differential fluid change...hopefully next weekend...A big thank you to Blue Collar Garage for walking me through the steps for all of it...saving me at least 2G's if not more...Thank you....

When i heard all this needed to be done just to replace plugs, i was in complete disbelief. Even watching it, i still am. Great video. Might be worth picking up a small Bluetooth mic if one exists. Camera work is great but the audio is kinda low. From what some other big YT guys have suggested, most viewers will be more forgiving over image quality then they will for audio. I still can’t believe whats involved just to get some new plugs in. Thanks for this.

[@cws2867]

This is a great video! 5 stars! I watched several other videos that were so long that it scared me to attempt DIY, but only issue I had was not having female torx socket and so had to get that picked up to complete job. Not as painfully long as I thought. I have somewhat normal size hands, so some of tight spots I could see giving some an issue, but thankfully video was very precise and left nothing to guess-timate! Thanks again!

[@nandi0431]

Hey brother, you don't want to use that old-style gapping tool for iridium spark plugs. You can damage the tip while measuring the gap. When you slide the tool through it can scrape the iridium. Try using a Lisle 67800 or 67900 tool from any parts store. You can adjust the gap by the back of the electrode arm. The measuring part of the tool is rounded. Less chance of damaging the iridium. Once you use the tool it will make more sense. I didn't get it at first but it avoided me from causing any issues in the future. Good luck and love the amount of time you spent on the small details.

[@hxax]

Your video helped me tremendously. This job is a pain just to get to the spark plugs. Thank you!

[@kenp196]

Excellent video! Clear and thorough. Still don't think I'm going to try it though!

[@maliroa6113]

My 2017 was a bit different and more difficult to get to the 2 back ones. There is very little room to get the spark plugs in and out. This video was very helpful tho!

[@Tom-mo6tl]

Great video thank you for posting it! I would highly recommend to disconnect each coil from the wire harness! I had to use some force to get the coil free and when it popped off momentum broke the coil connector on the harness. The black wire also broke off with no easy way to fix it, other than a whole new harness! Was sick to my stomach! Well, put in the new plugs and reassembled everything thinking the worst on start up. Luckily, the engine started fine no missing or check engine light, or other malfunction indicator. Drove about 20 miles and seems to be ok. I'm not sure what the 'black' wire is for (ground maybe?) Had it been either of the other two wires a tow and a very expensive repair bill would have been the most likely outcome.

[@TheXilya]

Gotta say previous model design is much less work on the same engine. Even though it's still annoying to remove intake every time you need to change spark plugs, oil temp sensor. Oil pressure sensor and that leaking oil cooler/filter assembly. I have been inside there quite a few times on a single vehicle.

[@driftlesstrekker4709]

The zip tie is a great idea!

😂😂 Hadn't thought of that, but after watching half the video I'm starting to feel the same way.

[@RoadiJeff]

Why just three? If you're going to have a shop change the three hard ones they are going to have to remove the intake and will probably charge you nearly as much as doing all six, minus the cost of each plug.

[@billconserva1461]

[@richardr5888]

Changing the headlight bulbs requires hand/wrist/forearm achrobatics and/or airbox removal. Why would I think a sparkplug change be any easier in this thing? Ok, so at least the thermostat housing, the waterpump, and the alternator are easy. Big wup.😂

Great video. Doing it again, would you disconnect the egr hose instead of disassembling the egr housing or would that end up being more work?

That would end up being more work because it’s equipped with an egr cooler so you’d have to drain the cooling system as well before disconnecting the hose.

@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE I also thought the gap for 2018 models is supposed to be 0.043" why you kept it on 40?

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

@@tek2313 only the original mopar/champion brand plugs are supposed to be gapped at .043 inches all the other brands like Ngk and auto lite call for the gap to be .040 inches.

@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE that’s weird I checked the NGK website and they mentioned that the gap for oem plugs is 0.044 and they told me to leave as it is?

@@tek2313 yeah that’s weird I was just going off of what Haynes says and also on the rockauto.com

I don't understand why jeep has made everything so insanely difficult, try replacing a starter on one of these- it's ridiculous!!!

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

I know the feeling. It’s because these vehicle manufacturers and the government don’t want us working on or modifying our vehicles anymore.

I have a p2172 code after i did everything any help

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

Sounds like you may have a vacuum leak or forgot to plug in a sensor. Have you doubled check all your lines and wiring harness to make sure everything is plugged back in?

[@Maxx_bulls]

@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE you were right

[@Maxx_bulls]

@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE i have a P0201 code now

[@medjoolmaker]

what a pain in the ass. engineers should make this way easier

[@medjoolmaker]

How many miles did you replace these on? Brand model of spark plugs? I have a 3.6 Pacifica, 5 years old with 44k miles, considering replacing plugs for peace of mind for time not necessary miles…. Thoughts?

That’s part of your egr valve

[@warrenmorphis4208]

This is rediculous...Accessing 6 spark plugs should not involve disassembling half an engine. When I do get rid of this Jeep - it'll be my last. They're cool when they run - but devour money when they dont.... Nice video though...

Took the words right out of my mouth.

To the mechanic it goes. Nope

[@diegolk-hs2ok]

I did everything but when I try to start it idk why but it starts to leaking a lot of oil and to make a sound 🥲🥲

[@BLUECOLLARGARAGE]

Can you tell the exact point of where the oil is coming from and what type of noise are you hearing?

[@adean6497]

🫶🏼 THANK YOU!! Step by step instructions! You saved me so much money! Truly appreciate you making this video!

[@footdickbubblehair]

God Jeeps are stupid vehicles. On no planet should you have to remote the damn manifold to replace spark plugs.

[@Alihussein8]

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Definitely helped me with my 2017 grand Cherokee limited. 🫡
