As a Porsche technician working at a dealer, you must remove the upper engine mount + bracket + bolts in order to change the sparkplugs. You don't need to support the engine because that engine mount is only for side to side movement of the engine. It still has 2 engine mounts underneath. Then you unplug a couple connectors and lift the cable tray out of the way. Believe me, there are harder ways to change sparkplugs. As for the sparkplugs, Porsche says no grease what so ever on the treads and use a little bit on the porcelain so that the coil won't get stuck.

Negative on the anti-seize. It can thermally couple the spark plug to the cylinder head and make them run colder than intended, potentially causing issues with premature fouling.
@DankoStojanovic2 жыл бұрын
What does it mean to thermally couple and why would that cause them to run colder?
@superspeeder2 жыл бұрын
@@DankoStojanovic adding anti-seize to the threads increases contact between the plug and cylinder head, allowing the plug to transfer heat to the head more effectively. Spark plug manufacturers specifically say not to use any lubricant on the threads for that reason.

Man, modern day cars don't make it easy to do service on them. Sure let's throw a wiring harness under a motor mount that feeds the ignition coil so we what to make out technicians struggle to do a simple spark plug service. My 2019 GMC Canyon is the same. The intake manifold has to come off to replace the whole river bank of plugs

I've always used a little bit of anti seize on plugs especially in aluminum heads. But every 30k jeez, are those vegan spark plugs? What a short life. They might say don't use anti seize as it changes the torque required but who knows, zee Germans do weird stuff.
