Thanks! Personally, I'd rather hear you talking thru the whole process w/o music. This was helpful.
👍👍👍
Thanks for this great video. Just did mine on a 2015 Altima with 127,000 miles for the first time. Was a little nervous at first. But once I got the plugs out , it was all good from there. Car started right up. Thanks again.
I appreciate the comment!
Doing my spark plugs tomorrow, thanks for giving the numbers needed for parts. Will follow up on how it goes.My 17' is at 93k miles and idling between 1 and 2 so I think it's time
Good luck! Let us know 👍
i dont mean to be so offtopic but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account??
I was stupid lost my password. I love any tricks you can offer me.
@Mordechai Rogelio instablaster ;)
@Musa Rhett Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Musa Rhett It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my ass!
Glad I found your channel. I have a 2016 Altima with about 50,000 miles. I'm enjoying the Altima videos and hope you do more, thanks.
Thank you! I truly appreciate it. Hopefully it helped! And ironically I just uploaded another Alitma how-to a few minutes ago lol.
My 2016 Altima has 98,000 miles. The dealer recommended changing the spark plug at a cost of $820.00. It looks really simple to do.
Wow that’s insane!
They replace coil packs usually with plugs at the steelership and oem coil packs are not cheap!
Got mine for 20$ bucks someone will install for $120/hr but imma do it myself 😂
Followed your directions to a T, and first ever spark plug replacement complete! Can barely even tell my car is on because it's so quiet. Watched your CVT fluid one, so on to that. Now going to watch more videos... Hopefully you have more! I haven't even checked 😬
Yay! More videos! ❤️
Most thorough video found so far. Thanks now I can go change mine.
Glad it helped 🙏
Great Video Man! I’ve been getting into DIY maintenance on my 2015 Altima to save $$ and your videos are perfect! More Content! 🤟🏾
Brian Woodard thanks a lot man! I appreciate it! I definitely with have more Altima content in the future! 👊
I have a 2015 too. They are trying to charge me damn near 500 for a tune up!!!! Imma go ahead and rent tools from autozone and go for it. Pray! 😁
Strange Magick thats ridiculous. Good luck!
@@TheOriginalBeeCee Thanks! 😊
@@strangemagick8903 500 just for spark plugs replacement?
Bro thanks for this video I did my spark plugs first time yesterday and appreciate the other comment about doing one at a time to avoid anything falling inside.
🤙🤙🤙
High quality workmanship, thanks for sharing!
Thank you! I appreciate it!
One big mistake I see is that you removed plug while you had another plug port open. This means dirt/debris an fall into the port and possibly into the cylinder. I pull one at at time, install new plug, then move to next plug.
I agree that’s definitely best practice. I actually had to go back and watch this to realize I did it that way. That’s typically what I usually do though, idk why I didn’t do that in this video...maybe was being lazy with camera work or something lol. Not the end of the world though.
Yup
@@TheOriginalBeeCee that’s fine there is nothing wrong with having more than one plug out 😊
Smart I never thought of that
Trust that the little debris will get pulverized on the first stroke of the piston😅😂
I have a 2015 nissan altima and going to do this next month. thanks for the video
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Interesting idea to use anti-seize on the plugs. Never thought about that before but it is a great idea. Helps reduce the possibility of a broken plug or stripped threads! Only difference is I would use the copper anti-seize only (personal preference) and note to everyone. IF you use anti-seize, be VERY careful not to get ANY on the plug where there are not threads. You do NOT want any of that going down into the cylinder.
If anti-seize was in there, it would’ve been there from the factory doesn’t need it
Great video! Amazing how tight that first plug was.
thanks man! But definitely, once plugs have been in there for a while they start really making a home in there lol
@@TheOriginalBeeCee yea I know what you mean!
Awesome video so that can help out my stepson’s to replace the original spark plugs.on his used 2015 Altima S, with 115,000 miles on it,.
Awesome! 🙏👍
So helpful bro! I thought it was easier than that but you definitely made it look simple for such a sort of hard job. Great content bro 🔥
Appreciate the comment 👊
thanks for this video, don't tell anyone but i couldn't find these OEM plugs anywhere but the dealership, so i spent a bill for 4, shhhhhh! please don't ask where i live either, that's just as embarrassing. lol
Hahahaha
Thank you so much dude. I'm still new in Cars and this really helps alot. Much appreciated man.!!!
Awesome man! Definitely glad it helped!
Thank you for teaching us all. dont stop keep up the good work 🤘
Thank you! Definitely appreciate the comment 🤙
Why no dielectric grease on the tip of the coil?
Why no blowing out the hole before you install the plugs?
Nice video!
Wondeful content! I was just wondering why you replaced the spark plugs but your car still idle at 1500 rpm. I read somewhere on google said that nissan altima 8th gen should be idling at 700rpm
Yeah, great video. Jiffy lube tried to charge me $200.00 for spark plugs which didn't even need to be changed..
Great DIY!!!! Can you provide me a simple list of what it'll take to replace my spark plugs and coils for the same model and year car? Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello did you ever change you're spark plugs ? Can you list which ones you bought , I have a 2015 nissan Altima 2.5 S and I would like to know so I can do it my self lol thank you
Omg!! Thank you so much. I think this is the problem with my car and now I just learned how to change my plugs, so thank you!
Good, im glad it helped! Good luck with the replacement!
Awesome video. Thanks!
Appreciate the comment!
Excellent demo
I would say when gapping plugs, do NOT hit the top of the plug head. Rather push it against something. If you miss while hitting the plug head you could damage the firing tip. Plus you could also just find the proper gap, and push the tip while holding the gauge (that's how I do it; although some plugs come pre-gapped and they tell you not to gap them -- particularly OEM ones). Second is I wouldn't put anti-seizing agent on splak plugs. This is one of those round-table debates but I've never used anti-seizing agent on plugs and never had a problem getting them out, but I also change my plugs about every 60k to 100k depending on the vehicle and the mfr's recommendations.
214k on my Altima just replaced plugs today need to learn how to work on cars ASAP.
I got quite a few Altima videos on the channel to help you out with that!
Nice work m8.
Music went really well with the video 👊🏻
Awesome video, man, brutally good!
Thanks a lot!
I definitely appreciate it 🙏🙏
Just came across this video, and I will be changing the spark plugs very soon. My ‘13 Altima has around 140k, and I was wondering if I should replace the pcv as well.
Couldn’t hurt!
Hey man, what's up! Great video, is it nesesary to disconnect the battery while replacing the spark plugs?
Naaa not really necessary. But definitely recommended and “best practice”.
Good video. Clean those battery terminals
I would vacuum everything around coils before taking them out. Lot of Debris can accumulate over time (acorns or for me 😂) and you don’t want any of that falling in there
I agree! I really should of blown it out before, i just didn’t have air at the time. But no dirt got in there….most of that dirt was caked on.
I'll be changing mine. My 14 Altima is my work car which i bought new in 14 and i'm at 196k miles. First plug change. Hope they come out ok.....
I hope so too....good luck 🙏
Never use antiseize on spark plugs, it can cause them to bo over torqued and break due to having a lower coefficient of friction on the thread. Don't believe me? Go to pretty much any spark plug manufacturer website and look.
You’re right, as far as most manufacturers stating not to use anti-seize. Although, this is a more recent revelation, and many mechanics still use it, and I’ve personally done it on countless vehicles for over 15+ years with 0 issues. For me, this article pretty much sums it up:
agradetools.com/be-confident-with-anti-seize-how-to-use-the-right-anti-seize-like-a-boss/
..Basically as the article is stating, if you have a bunch of people overtightening their lubricated spark plugs from inexperience, and stripping out their engine heads....the manufacturer could be held liable. By telling you not to use anti-seize they reduce their liability and wouldn’t be held responsible for you over tightening their plugs.
I think experience is a huge factor with the use of anti-seize, and obviously if it’s going to be used, moderation is the key to success for its use. Less is more. In hindsight......considering a lot of people watching this probably don’t have that experience with plugs/anti-seize...it’s probably best I shouldn’t include that in the video, or at least share a disclaimer that anymore plug companies don’t suggest it use. Its more or less habitual for me at this point, and in most cases I’m sure you could get away without using it, but for certain applications I still think it serves a purpose when used modestly.
Common sense dictates it's a good idea to use anti sieze, yeah it affects the torque setting, so use your head and just snug them down. I've done hundreds, never a problem. The spark plug manufacturer has his own interests in mind, and it has nothing to do with you pulling some aluminum threads out of the head.

i always clean around the plugs before i take them off.

Awesome information to use.
Started to do my plugs but the plastic cover over the plugs is bolted into place. I can remove the bolt to to replace it would not be any easy task. Looks to me on the video it actually broke the plastic bracing.
Not sure I’m following..

Appreciate it!!
Hi everybody. I have a 2017 Nissan Altima. My car has 220.000 miles on it and it has the original spark plugs. It runs perfect and gives me up to 37 mpg. Should I replace them?
What is that you’re using to remove those “bolts” on the engine cover? I know you’re using a hex key or Allen Wrench but, what is that handle you’re using? I’m having the hardest time getting that THIRD bolt off the engine cover- the last bolt you removed in the video, the screw with the big hunk of plastic in the way. Is that a bit handle?
Its actually just a folding key set, kinda like a pocket knife...but it has multiple different sizes you can fold in/out. You might want to consider a set of hex sockets that you can use with a socket wrench. So you can get like a 3/8 set, and just utilize it with your 3/8 socket wrench.
Does it matter which ones you take off first?Any peticular order of removal or just like you did on the video.Was worried if it mattered which ones first. Thank you
Nope doesnt matter at all! You could do them in whatever order.
Question at what mileage should you do spark plug change on 2014 Altima? I have 88k miles.
The Nissan Service & Maintenance guide that comes with the car recommends first spark plug replacement @ 105K.
@@TheOriginalBeeCee thank you. I'm at 88k miles now
Great tutorial
Does this fix the idling putt putt putt (like it wants to stall out). Curious to know?
Thats a pretty subjective question to be honest. There are multiple things that could cause that symptom at idle.
The spark plugs/a misfire could definitely create that symptom at idle, but it’s not a guarantee that is your problem. If the plugs have never been replaced, or haven’t been replaced in a while….you can replace them, since they aren’t that hard to do and they need to be done anyway at that point. But typically plugs have to be pretty bad off to really create a bad idle. Might be worth it to have it properly diagnosed. Is check engine light or anything on?
@@TheOriginalBeeCee yes will go to autozone in the week. Thank you
Hello what spark plugs do you recommend to get for my 2015 Nissan Altima 2.5 S?
Great Video!
Thank you 🙏
I thought NGK Iridium was stock they say OEM equipment at Advance Auto. 14.99 a piece. Ive always used NGK since my turbo Eclipse days.
The NGK’s are “OEM grade”. Altima’s use to come stock with NGK’s. But they now come with Denso OE plugs. Nothing wrong with utilizing NGK’s tho, they are good plugs.
These OEM plugs are so expensive, around $25 per piece. While big name brand ones like from Boches costs $10 each.
Not sure if I should stick to the OEM parts on the plug
You can get away with other plugs of course, but personally, regardless of the vehicle….i like to utilize the OEM plugs when replacing.
@@TheOriginalBeeCee Just get mine replaced today. I realized the original plugs from the engine was from Denso as well.
So the new one I bought, though not from Nissan, but was exactly the same from the OEM.
The part code was Denso: FXE20HE11C or Just Denso 3490.
The OEM I ment in the previous comment was the "Nissan OEM". Those were like $25. The denso one was only $10-12.
Thank you again.
Is hard for me to change spark plugs. But my father can help me. But he is afraid that he will mess up the engine. I have altima 2018 sr 2.5 4l
Thanks!!!
My issue is that I'm scared that i will overtighten or under tighten the spark plug.
Thats what they make torque wrenches for!
I have a Nissan 2015 altima. I got a tune up last Monday and just got new spark plugs put in. My check engine light is still on. What else could be the problem?
Maybe they didn’t reset the code? But what was the specific code? If it was a cylinder misfire, could also potentially be the ignition coil.
Bout to do mine
wow, nice, I just subscribed, very well done, thanks! ;-) can I ask how your CVT transmission is doing at 125k? I have 78k and have herd some bad stuff, please let me know, ;-)
Thank you! I appreciate that. Car is running good though, actually @ 135K now! But staying on top of the fluid is my best suggestion in getting the most life out of the trans!
thanks, ;-)

@@usaisgood8433 dam bro, did you have it replaced? or rebuilt? and how much $, thanks for the reply!
oh snap, my comment from 7 months ago says i had 78k miles on my CVT, i now have 96k, i drive for a living, but holy crap,, that's like 2500 miles a month! CVT still working though, was thinking about replacing the oil again, since i didnt use Nissan oil when i did it last year, shhhhhh, dont tell anyone im ruining a nice car, lol, its mine, im the mechanic and its paid for ;-) best car ever, really like it a bunch.. . . thanks for the videos, keep them coming as its obvious ill need them, oh yea I also had to replace the brakes again since June of last year when i bought new rotors too. take care... . ..
Why are all Nissans have corrosion in the batteries ik is regular normal for all cars to have corrosion on the batteries but every Nissan I’ve seen and I have one that in the battery was all corrosive
I’m not sure the reason, but it has been like that forever. They do get super corrosive.
Hey, where did you get your lubricant that you used? Can you send me the link pls? Thanks
Hey how are you, sorry I’m just now seeing this comment. CZcams doesn’t always send notifications for every comment. But it’s just anti-seeze, you can get it at Walmart or any Auto Parts store!
Don't use it, unnecessary
i have 2016 altima bought with 60k miles now have 235k miles i never change spurg plugs or do eny throthle body service and fuel injector is no engine light on and never been with engine light cars drive but i think fuel economy change i noticed lately do u think i have to do service on those i mention
Yeaaaaaaaa lol. Those plugs have over double them mileage they should. I would 100 percent replace the plugs at the very least.
@@TheOriginalBeeCee thanks for the reply to me also am trying to do the spur plugs but my question is that specific tools with a pound is that necessary to tighten up or not when u put all back together am Trying to do it myself and save some money
@@agimqerimi2564 its ideal to use one as they don’t make them for no reason….but if you’re careful, you can get away without using one just snugging it
That a 8 inch or 10 inch extension?
Honestly don’t remember, I have both lol. Really doesn’t matter though, you would be fine with either, doesn’t matter either way.
Nice job

What kind of video recorded did you used and what kind of video editing ?
Great video

awesome video ! i have 2017 SR Altima what part number do i need , as this is the first time i am going to do it myself. Subscribe to all your videos.
Thank you! The OEM plugs are Denso FXE20HE11C.
Such a thorough well explained video. There’s no reason I shouldn’t be able to change my own spark plugs now, but I’m so paranoid of screwing something up! But I also don’t trust these shady shops that do shoddy work either. I wish you could do mine! 🥲

What is the gap on the spark plugs
wait how the hell do you get off the cover? i took out the 3 screws and it still wont come off because something else is holding it down under that i cant get to
You just need to pull up on it. Give a nice tug should pop off.
Hey hopefully you see this, I have a 2013 Altima with only 120k miles, it started running rough and I took it by autozone and got the error code that it was cylinder two misfire. It was having a hard time cranking so I went ahead and replaced all the spark plugs and followed this video to a T. Now it will try to crank but won’t no matter how hard it tries. Any suggestions of what I can try to do next? Thank you
I would strongly suggest going back over all your work. Sounds like a coil harness is either unplugged, or not plugged in all the way tight. If it didn’t start directly after you finished this job, it has to be something simple you missed/hit/forgot, etc.
Check the fuel injector.
I just brought a 2017 Altima i don't know if the spark plugs ever been changed should i change then just so i know they are good?
henry rodriguez hey whats up man. I would consider it depending on the mileage of the car. The spark plug replacement interval outlined in the Maintenance Guide is @ 105K. So if the car has 100K plus, I would consider doing it!
Does apply to 2017 Nissan Altima SV?
Hello, thanks for the vid. Excuse my ignorance, where do I find the kind of wrench you are using? I have seen a couple online that include the torque pressure but I am not sure if they will work.
Hey no problem man, its a Torque Wrench. Its meant to only turn bolts to a certain specific set pound setting (they come in inch pounds and foot pounds). Really, there are a wide variety of torque wrenches. In my opinion having both an inch pound and a foot pound torque wrench are essential. I would suggest getting yourself like a nice 1/2 drive foot pound wrench, and like a nice 3/8 drive inch pound wrench. Although, part stores like Autozone and Advanced do rent these torque wrenches out if need be! Might be worth renting one first to get some experience with one, and see what you like and don’t like with the different options of torque wrenches available.
Thanks bro
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Where can I get the metal circle to measure the cap?
Any autoparts store carries gap tool!
hey man could you please link me to this torque wrench? it seems really good
Its actually not lol. Thats the 2nd one i bought. Both broke for absolutely no reason. Stay away from craftsman torque wrenches
denso or NGK use for nissan please?
Awesome 👌
How cold does the car has to be to replace the spark plugs ??
I would do it when engine is cold as possible, so not running for a few hours at least.
How would you know if you have to replace those ignition coils
If you’re having a misfire (check engine light for misfire), start with all the plugs. Once you know plugs are 100 percent, clear the codes. If you get a misfire code again, an easy way to determine a bad coil would be swapping it for a known good one.
So for example, if you’re getting a P0301 (1st cylinder misfire), you would swap the coil with the second cylinder. Clear codes, then if you get a P0302…which would be a misfire for the second cylinder, you know the coil is bad because you now have the misfire on the second cylinder where you swapped the questionable coil into.
@@TheOriginalBeeCee great thank you
What if the plastic cover is stripped ? How can I get the plastic cover off ?
The bolts retaining the cover are stripped?
@@TheOriginalBeeCee yes the hex screws . Thank you for replying and I have engine oil leaking in one of the spark plugs only
@@josuesolis1382 my best suggestion would be sacrificing a socket. Find the closest socket that basically fits over it, and hammer it on. Then you can back it off. You might even be able to get the socket back off. I just had to do that with a torx head bolt actually. The torx pattern in the center of the bolt was rusted/stripped out…..so I hammered on a socket and was actually able to remove it.
What if u don't have a torq wrench
Does not show how ro pull clip off spark plug wiring
Its beyond simple…..but if you need to see it check out the pinned comment, its outlined in my new video.
very helpful but those plugs seemed hard to extract. Dude do something about that back ground music.
Yea, not the easiest plug extraction ever. Time might have just gotten the best of them considering they were the original OEM plugs. Funny, because most of these new plugs of this style have that "anti-seize" plating on them for easier extraction (& aren't really suppose to need ant-seize), but goes to show they can be stubborn just like a traditional style plug.
As far as the music, I answered this in another comment...but I can dig it. As I mentioned it that comment, my new uploads are less music happy. I just purchased a music subscription for creators right around the time of the release of this video, and I was definitely overly excited about it, as you can tell lol.
Hi. Do you recommend OEM spark plugs and ignition coils or some aftermarket one would do?
I prefer utilizing OEM parts typically, as I used the OEM plugs in this video.
Since plugs are not something you do that often, I would just spend the extra money and go with the OEM. You literally will save a few bucks by going aftermarket and I have, but it's usually not worth the savings (literally, dollars). The only time I would say to use cheaper aftermarket plugs is if the car is messed up and burns a lot of oil to a point where you're changing plugs every year or every other year, then yes get the cheap plugs because you're going to be throwing them away quite often, but only in that instance. But even then so, you're talking about maybe saving maybe $20-$30 per year if you had to change your plugs every year going with aftermarket versus OEM. (In my case with one car, it was cheaper to put a 1/2 quart of oil in every month and replace the plugs every 18 months than have the rings redone).
Hi can i ask u a favor can u please put the tools that u use
Everything you need is outlined in the video by both me mentioning it & text in bubbles
I Wish He Would've Listed The Tools He Used
Literally every tool is mentioned in the video, and every socket size etc is also noted in text throughout the video.
How long of extension is this ?
I believe its a 18 inch
How many miles does it have? Trying to figure out when I should do mine 😊
Hey what’s going on man. It’s recommended to do them every 105K by Nissan. So 105k, 210k, 315k, etc. etc.
You can verify this with Nissan’s Service & Maintenance Guide for this car:

Nissan was going to charge me $718.00 to replace 6 spark plugs...they said they are hard to get to?
Well if you’re replacing 6 plugs…that means you have the 3.5L 6 cylinder. In this video the 4 cylinder is what is outlined. The 6 cylinder is definitely harder than this 4 cylinder with more involved, but it’s definitely doable.
I have a 2018 Altima and is the torque for that the same as yours? The 14 foot pounds
Yes, the torque spec is also 14lbs for your 2018!

Should a clean around those boots for the coils before you remove them now you gotta chance to get dirt down inside
I mean, that couldn’t hurt. But I can assure you, no dirt got anywhere. That dirt was caked on. Even with shop-vac’ing it @ 3:43....it didn’t do much cause all the dirt was on there. And look @ 2:30...the bit of free dirt/dust around that coil traveled outward when pulling the coil straight up, not inward.
@@TheOriginalBeeCee I've been doing this for 35 years and with the cyclone action of that yes dirt can get tossed around Ann can't get dislodged and it can't fall down into the cylinder just give me a warning on what I know I've seen personally seen happen before you should scrape it and vacuum it before you removed the coils that's all don't need to be offended I'm just giving you some pointers to help you in the future so you may say this time it didn't get down there but I've seen it happened many at times it's not worth the risk
@@Jay-jt3zy I’m not offended, simply responding to your comment with my experience. You’re sharing your experience, I’m clarifying mine. As I said, that couldn’t hurt...and I do agree, that’s best practice. You don’t want dirt to get in there, and anything you can do to avoid it is obviously in your best interest. Just in this car case, in this videos case..no dirt got in there. Hell if it did....I would have freaked out and wouldn’t have even finished recording the video lol.
Good video! I’m about to do this on my wife’s Altima. By any chance has your Altima ever hesitated to accelerate from a stop? The only way to stop this would be to turn off car for about 30 seconds and turn on again and it’s fine for a while lol.
A Carmona thank you I appreciate it! But no I’ve never experienced that with this car. Unfortunately to me it almost sounds like you might have a potential CVT issue, but I definitely hope I’m wrong lol.
Yeah mine had this same issue. Even stalled on the freeway . Thank god I was close to an exit. But it definitely was the transmission. Had to replace it at 60k.
