After 130k miles it was definitely time to swap out spark plugs in the 2006 Nissan Murano 3.5L.
NGK SPARKPLUGS - amzn.to/2vkcuJK
FELPRO INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET - amzn.to/2vkRnqy
PCV VALVE - amzn.to/2vGqZZh
As with most newer cars, this is not a simple task. I show you how to save about an hour by accessing the rear brackets from the side instead of overhead. The procedure does require you to remove the entire intake manifold and all the crap that goes with it. Also, Nissan uses the Coil on Plug method, so you must remove the coils to get to the plugs.
Total cost was just under $100 for spark plugs, intake manifold gasket and PCV valve.
This applies to the following vehicles with a 3.5L VQ engine from 2001-2015 Pathfinder, Infinity (Qx4, I35, G35, FX35, M35, JX35, QX60), Altima, Maxima, 350z, Murano and Quest. European models: Elgrand, Stagea, Skyline, Teana, Cefiro, Presage, Fuga, Nismo Fairlady S-Tune GT, Renault (Espace, Vel Satis, Formula V6 Eurocup, Dallara T05, T08, T12 World Series, Samsung SM7, Laguna, Latitude

I watched other videos doing 06 Murano the same job and, I give you credit that your the only one who covered the intake ports once the intake was removed I give your credit for doing that.

Do the whole valve cover while you're at it (and ignition coils). The spark plug tube seals have a tendency to leak, they are mounted to the valve cover.

Thanks, this is really good. I'm doing this on my wife's car soon and wanted a way to do it without fooling with the cowl. BTW- I did front struts at about 90K, they really needed it. Nothing unusual about compared to other front MP strut cars I've done. Compressing the springs is generally a pain.

Thanks for the video. This is the best video on KZbin for Murano spark plug change. A few things that helped me. I wore a head lamp, that helped me see some of the hard to reach hoses and bolts. I used a paint marker to mark a symbol on both ends (male/female) of hoses, that took the guesswork out when reconnecting. I used needle nose locking pliers for some of the hard to reach hose connections on the back of the intake.

+sclark1701 Kind of six in one half dozen in the other... With alum heads, cross-threading is a real thing. I've never been overly concerned about torque on a spark plug (probably because I've never had one blow out). I figure if it's off by a ft-lb or so, it's probably ok... I could be wrong.

Just a few months ago I installed a new PCV valve on my 2006 Murano which I just sold today ironically. The engineering of these cars and SUV's is by design (on purpose) intricate and hard to basically discourage DIY's to do the job themselves and take the car to a Nissan dealership who of course will slam them with outrageous repair bills for something as simple as replacing a sparkplug. Back in the old days replacing sparkplugs would have been a cake walk, not anymore. It's all because of corporate greed.

I was also able to avoid disconnected hoses to the throttle body by accessing the driver's side most plug working with the intake to the left. Dismounting the intake and moving it a little made getting the 12mm at the back accessed from the passenger side much easier. Don't drop your wrench down the back!

Thank you VERY much Earl. I wondered about this. Typical after manufacturer parts; where it is often that they come up with some worthless gimmick; just to sell more parts. And Most of them do more damage than good. Oh indeed yes. BE careful of ALL non original manufacture parts. Yes you can save money but most of the times when I do that I have problems. EX: Gas springs holding hoods up were a joke from Napa Yet they said it was in specs. Yeah right! Went to the dealer and it was a pleasure; although they cost much more than the Napa crap! Electrical harness from an auto parts co. burned up within one hour after installing it. Cost me a fortune to get it fixed for the damage it did. Bought a set of wipers from Walmart. They made a horrible noise as they went back and forth. Sad indeed. Brakes wearing out in less than 8,000 miles from another parts depot. Sad. Fuel add-ons damaging an engine. They are worthless in MOST case. After working on cars for 70 yrs I can say; that in MOST cases, non original manufacture parts; are NOT worth the savings. For in many times they simply do NOT stand up to specs. GAR-OWN-TEED! One that drove me crazy years ago. I bought a friends car and it was awesome; EXCEPT the engine would VERY slowly get hotter and hotter EVERY time I drove it. Determined to find the cause, and after MANY ours of checking and testing; I discovered that my friend had overhauled the carberator shortly before he sold it; and the kit had a gasket that was NOT designed to fit the intake manifold correctly. But it looked right, until I examined it closely, I saw how it was letting outside air into the engine; because it was designed incorrectly. I replaced the gasket with an original gasket (cost me $3.50), NO more motor getting hotter and hotter. The safest part is: I spent untold hours trying and untold aggravations trying to find out what in the pluperfect hallelujah was wrong with the dadgum thing!!! Imagine a simple gasket was causing a dangerous major problem. Oh well! Please... BUY original parts and pay the money. Over all, you will be way better off in most cases. Promise.

Thanks for a great video! I know this is a hard job but it's really not using videos like yours! Patience is definitely critical! It's not cheap either! I just paid $740 for about 6 hours of oil change, all spark plugs and 3 new ignition coils. But then we found out that the valve cover (s) were leaking onto my coils. So the price jumped up to $1000 and the shop still can't get my check engine light off! Plus it kept dying on me! So I had Advance check it and found code PO 340 which (usually) points to the cam sensor. Or anything related to it like the connector. So I changed the sensor myself and at least I saved $400. Car starts good and runs great now (especially since I found a disconnected vacuum line the shop left off going to the intake cover.) But the light is still on! My oil level is good and I'm stumped. I'm thinking about resetting the ECM.

NO disrespect; but I suggest that DIY'rs DO remove the cowl (and under cover if it has one-like on Maxima's). Yes I know, I know, that MOST do not do it. But it is so much easier to get to those back bolts, aggravating rubber tubes and electrical connectors, behind the "intake plenum". Yes it takes a bit of time to get that cowl, etc, out of there. But once it's out; it's so much easier from then on. Secondly most of us are not working mechanics, so time is not that critical. If any one wants to do it, the following is a link. Caution; make sure you mark with masking tape the position of the windshield wipers BEFORE you remove and reinstall them. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jmnCk4SmZ7B0i6M For what it's worth. Again, NO disrespect at all.

Good job. That line that connects to the back of the intake manifold is not a water line. It is the high pressure power steering hose because I had to change that hose when it started to leak. BTW, that leaky power steering hose is a very common problem on several Nissan models (including the Murano) and I doubt that Nissan has fixed it yet since hoses are not covered under warranty.

Very helpful video. The insulated hose that is attached to the back of the intake is the hi pressure line for the power steering. I fought with that bolt a few years ago. I broke my new PCV valve reconnecting the hoses so I had to clean and reinstall the old one. I had a heck of a time with the 2 bolts in the rear. Other than that, everything went as you said. Took me about 4 hours with a hoagie break in the middle. I did come across a rubber line coming off the top of the transmission that looked to be a vent tube. I can't see where it was connected to anything that I took apart. It comes straight up and make a u-turn and ends. Its right under the black plastic piece in the middle of the air intake system. Any clue?

NGK's are my plug of choice...I generally remove the throttle body from the manifold before removal of the manifold and leave the throttle body attached to the coolant hoses...a little more access and you can get the manifold out of the way and get you arm easily around the back to get those bracket bolts..Shh..Just between you and me...I've never torqued any of those bolts but I guess after a while you get a feel for what is tight enough.

Nice video-another KZbinr shows how to take the cowl off (kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZS5aICGp9d4qas). In that video the water line/pressure line mentioned in this video at time stamps 9:50 & 14:54 that KZbinr states is the power steering high pressure hose. In this video at me stamp 10:00 the “PCV” valve was called a “pvc” valve (a common mistake I make because I work with pvc plumbing pipe a lot). However, I think the closed captioning spells it correctly.

I just did the plugs on my 2007 Murano. I started similar to you but when I tried to get to the 2 small cap-screws aft of the intake on the passenger side, I decided to remove the cowl. It was very easy to remove - only about 10 minutes and made things so much easier. Hardest part was the passenger side wiper took a little persuasion to pop off. I do not think I would have ever been able to get that small bracket near the PCV valve off without the cowl removed - don't know how you got in there. Anyway, I still recommend removing the cowl.

+Rapture1469 I agree... Nothing wrong with removing the cowl. I didn't have to, but my toolbox also has lots of options for getting into tight spots.

I have to change the rear valve cover in mine since is leaking....do you think I have enough space to put the new valve cover without removing the cowl? how did you get that green wire connector off? for the life of me I can't take it off

You can remove the rear valve cover without removing the cowl. I have done it both ways and for the 30 minutes it takes to remove the cowl and wipers, the extra room and access is worth it.

Check out video on removing the cowel, it only takes 5-10 minutes, then you can access all those nasty bolts in the back. It will save you more time. That little water hose is the high pressure power steering fluid line. Ask me how I know? What a nightmare that repair is.

Is it necessary ( safety wise) to disconnect either of the battery cables from the battery BEFORE replacing the spark plugs? My gut always told me to do so, but never thought to ask if it was needed until now.

I ran to an issue which I can’t figure, after remove the two hidden bolts in the drive side and with intake bolts i couldn’t remove the intake. I’m able to wiggle it up but unsuccessful at removing completely and I’m not sure if there’s another bolt or something holding it down in the passenger side. It’s a 2006 Nissan Murano.

I've done this. I was so pissed off how much work to change plugs. What he downt show you is the struggle to get behind there with wrench to remo5the air intake. This being said, I will remove the stripping ( whatever its called) above it as recommended. I'm guessing it'll make it much more accessible

Ngk says not to use anti sneaze on their spark plugs so I was wondering what harm would be done doing so. Also is there a way to remove the hose that is covering cylinder 4 for easier access?

Hi Greg thanks for your videos they are always informative and helpful for all DIYers, I have a problem with my Nissan Murano 2003 148k miles, I bought it used a year ago, a week ago I drove 90 miles to my friend and in the way back the car was running slow so I pressed the gas pedal to floor and the car started shaking, I stopped for 10 minutes and drove back at a speed of 40 mph I saw the service engine light flash and the next day after returning home I tried to start the car and it will just click , I have codes p0420,p0021,p1800 and p0300 i got the battery and starter checked at autozone and they both are fine, I checked the fuses under the hood they are fine too. kindly suggest what should I do next or what could be the problem

I just bought a used murano and i hope i don't have to change the plugs soon. I must get rid of her first. If you want to be able to work on your car, get one that is older. 2000 and earlier.

Removing the cowl isn't as bad as it seems. You need to remove the wiper arms but not the motor assembly. It took me about 10 min to remove but only 5 min to put things back once I knew how thing fit together. It's worthwhile and make everything else easier. The time spent on the cowl may end up save your time on trying to reach those nasty bolts and connectors in the back especially if you have big hands or thick arms or if you wear gloves.

Skips critical steps, does it the “harder way”, blocks the camera, literally skips an entire chunk of reassembly. I was hoping for a complete video.
