This is by far one of the best how to car videos I've seen and used. It took me maybe one in a half to just under two hours total to replace the spark plugs, the ignition coils, and the plenum gasket (at least that's what they were calling it online). This video was spot on. I watched it a bunch of times and jumped around to what I needed. I also found tons of mistakes that our dealership mechanics made the last time they worked on the car that I got to fix. Bracket behind the purge tank with no bolts just hanging loose, air box put under the battery platform with no bolt or nut to hold that air box down. So many things. Got to fix several issues needless to say. Thanks a million. I feel like I know our family car a lot better. Definitely more confident in working on it now.

[@ozzstars_cars]

@MNewell1980 glad the video helped you out and I appreciate the kind words. It's a good feeling when the job is done correctly! Take it easy. -Glen (Ozz)

JUST got back from doing some laps after tackling this job. Decided to do this after having some intermitent rough starts. The dealership told me there was some misfiring at startup, so sparks was a good place to start to try and fix it. We'll see if that ended up being the cause...but time will tell there. Followed you step by step, and aside from some stubborn connectors, i had no major issues, and everyting went smooth. Took me 5hrs, but it was a great learning experience, and i saved $500. No codes, car seems to run normally, so knock on wood... all is well. Thanks so much for posting this video. A tip for anyone doing this, remove that bolt at the rear of the surge tank FIRST! Not after you get everything else disconnected and realize its rusted tight and beyond your ability to break loose.

[@danielbowen2523]

I know it's an old video but thanks. I knew I was in for a mess but this clears it up. Having to take the whole top of the motor off to do spark plugs will never not be crazy.

[@BMWE90HQ]

I’m curious how many miles you have and how the intake ports looked.

[@ozzstars_cars]

I believe that car had about 115k miles at the time and there was some minimal carbon build up on the back of the valves but nothing to cause issues.

Old guy here, trying to save some money. Your video convinced me that I could do this job with some help from my son. All went well thanks to your tips. BTW in 2024 the gasket was hard to find, be careful to compare video to what is being sold! Santa Fe 2013 -with 99K- all plugs looked about the same-worn but not terrible. Also saw your video on the PCV valve, so we did that too-maybe it will help with oil consumption. Cleaned throttle body. THANK YOU!

Thanks for the video. I have a 2016 Kia Sedona 3.3. I’ve asked 2 actual pro mechanics to do this job for me and they both didn’t want to. I followed your video and got it done today in 3.5 hours. I took my time and that time included a trip to auto parts store nearby and lunch. Got a check engine light when I cranked it up cuz I forgot to connect the throttle body plug. Not too bad. 2 things you didn’t mention not sure if yours was different but there was a bracket behind the manifold that was holding an oil or ac line that I had to take off to get the manifold out. Also the new coils were slightly different than the stock ones in then van. I got OEM exact part numbers but I had to the coil plug connect because it was inverted 180 deg. Not a big deal but just thought I’d mention it. Thank you so much. I’ve been wanting to get this done for a while.

Hello! Very helpful video, good job. Need to do this job soon. I have couple of questions: 1- have you had a rough start-up that then just smooth out after a few seconds? Do you know what that could be? 2- I get like a pressure relieving sound when stopping, I replaced the PCV valve a while ago, don’t know if this might be causing that.

[@ozzstars_cars]

Yes the rough idle at startup is common. At one point years ago Hyundai has a software update but I believe it is due to carbon buildup on that back of the valves. This happens on high mileage vehicles. What mileage does your car have?

Actually they can (and do) block half the coils with the intake manifold on their RWD cars as well. Have a v6 Stinger; the OEM shop manual has you removing the intake as well to do a spark plug change. Fortunately the community figured out that with the right combination of wobble/rotating sockets and with disassembling the coils there is JUST enough room to get the plugs out without removing the intake!

So this is the same diagram order for a 2014 kia sorento 3.3 v6 asking because i seen a site that had 1 3 5 in the dront and 2 4 6 in the back but you just said otherwise and sound like yoy know

[@ozzstars_cars]

Kia and Hyundai are all same.

[@JW-ix1uy]

Thanks. Your video helped alot

[@ozzstars_cars]

Great news!

[@alekseibelousov8932]

Peace of cake, thank you 🙏

[@AlanCornett-vm7bd]

Not for me

[@terryfoster9050]

My coils and plugs have to be done when I get home

[@ozzstars_cars]

Coils are shot? Worn out spark plugs can cause excessive backfeed voltage to possibly destroy coils.

[@terryfoster9050]

They are fairly older, Im deployed currently so just planning ahead

[@1188clean]

How many miles did this car have?

[@ozzstars_cars]

Yamaha tuning forks. 👍

[@yvesbosquet1372]

You the man! Thanks a ton

[@ozzstars_cars]

Appreciate that. 👍

[@jeremyhoefs8167]

Should a person just replace the coil packs if the car has 103,000 miles on it?

[@ozzstars_cars]

Why?

[@rickf8293]

done and done. just take your time. thanks for the good info, now i can afford to take the wife to supper!!!

[@ozzstars_cars]

The tip jar is open. 😁👍

Sound advice!

[@terryfoster9050]

Hey how is it going. I am a helicopter mech. Just need to know where you got the maintenance data from?

[@ozzstars_cars]

I use several online sources such as Alldata, Mitchell, etc.

[@terryfoster9050]

@@ozzstars_cars I will check it out. Is the cost high for the use? I know its not free by far

[@ozzstars_cars]

@@terryfoster9050 there is a DIY version and service info can be purchased per car for around $25

[@dateatorjr9671]

The classic reach around tool. 😂

[@ozzstars_cars]

Haha all by feel.

[@Dustinnicholas1987]

Just did my spark plugs and dam it was a pain in the ass having to remove the whole manifold for 3 spark plugs🤬🤬

[@ozzstars_cars]

Sure is.

[@chereceus]

I saved this video just because of the commentary that "doesn't sound right" 🤣🤣🤣

[@ozzstars_cars]

😂👍

LoL, double wrapping her.

[@ozzstars_cars]

Safety first.haha

[@briancarroll8124]

Thanks for the video!!! Now on to my complaint….HYUNDAI YOU SUCK ONCE AGAIN!!!! They get stolen with a flash drive, Alternator just went out on my 7 year old Santa Fe V6, and now I find out it takes this much work to change out spark plugs? 😡

[@f1f278]

What a stupid design, so glad i went with the 4 cylinder Turbo.... same job done in 6mins

[@ozzstars_cars]

There is no replacement for displacement.

[@f1f278]

@@ozzstars_cars there isnt... but unfortunately Hyundai/Kia didnt give us multiple V6 options... but if thats their usual poor design... then id stay away from them and get a V6 elsewhere thats less of a headache just to change spark plugs.

[@ozzstars_cars]

@@f1f278 only necessary every 100+k miles. It's a 1.5-2 hour job at the most. No biggie
