I like to do 2 things.....lube the plug threads for easy install and truer torque and die-electric grease put on with a q-tip on the inside of the boot for easier boot slide and click and of coarse to keep out moisture. GREAT VID!!
BEWARE OF FAKE PLUGS ON E-BAY AND AMAZON.WATCH VIDS.
Nice tips
Recently purchased a 2005 MDX with cylinders 4 & 5 misfiring. This excellent video mustard-up the courage to replace plugs and coils myself. Thank you much for the great tutorial and walk-through.
Good luck! Yup let me know hit it went
Did it fix the issue?? Same problem in my 2005
Torque specs for the plugs on this car is 13ft/lbs.
Thank you very much. You got the best video on this. You're great
Yup glad u liked the video!!
Thank you! This was very helpful!
Yeah I have an 06mdx and currently getting about 10mpg. I think it's def time to replace her spark plugs and coil pack as well
Cleaning sensors might help as well oxygen sensors
What sensors do you clean?
Where is the ant-seize on the spark plug threads?
Don’t need but if u want u can
You saved me bro thanks for vid followed ya steps and knocked it out .
Nice job!
Mine has an Issue with the VSA light turning on after about three miles of driving. IT drives well and doesnt pull to either side and the awd works jsut fine. Any ideas armano?
U have to scan for codes
What if the Spark Plug Feels or it is getting Stuck What should I Do?
Don’t brake it try put some penetration oil/spray and let it sink in for hour or so worst come to worst take it to shop
Thanks for kyour video. I have error code p0301 on 2004 Acura MDX. any idea to fix it.
Misfire cylinder 1 do tune up and coil change on cylinder 1
Thanks man appreciate the help
What are the tools you're using besides the wrench and flathead screwdriver?
I show it all in the video
Hey RB, my 04 mdx has been having a power steering issue i think, and wanted to ask what component you think may be bad. Also had power steering flushed already. When you are holding a turn at over 15mph, the steering wheel "bumps" the other way, and (assuming you are holding the turn steady), will bump back to place. What could it be?
John E can you make video of this and post it on utube I need to see this and also is there any noise comming when u turn
@@RBTheMechanic did @John E ever post/share a video for this? My 2002 MDX I just bought used in Puerto Rico DOES make a sound when I turn all the way to the left or right.
Just curious if you had anything to advise him.
Very good stuff
Yup!! Thank you!!
What’s the torque spec for the spark plug is same as 2003 mdx. Thanx
I believe it’s 13 ft lb
Thanx for the reply good 👍
Hey RB I have a check engine light on my Acura MDX 2006 my code says it's misfires and now it smokes out my tail pipe and now it's smoking from my starter because I kept trying to starter it. U just put a fresh batter in it
This is your car ? Damn bro. That’s fucked up.
Good work sir.
Thank you
This spark plugs don’t need to be calibrated?
U mean the gap? U can do that u should most plugs are like already at the oregano but u can spend extra 10 get the gauge and check the gap speciation for ur vehicle
@@RBTheMechanic whata the torque epecs for the spark plugs?
Always always always use OE plugs . The engine wasn't designed/built with parts from NAPA
I try to use NGK or denso but some customer bring their own stuff then I just got to do it
Great 👍
And also in this video 14:14 that black box that not above the engine what it's that? My Acura does not have that plug on the right closest to the motor? What does that go to?
fuse box
will this procedure fix my error codes misfire 1-6? p.d.(pending determination) on all,or should i do a valve adjustment?money is tight so i can barely pay for 1..my best case would b to get a coil/plug package and DEFNLY do it myself,honda wants like 400 for a full tune up and all my liquids are fine air filter etc
SuitLoops before you do this watch is this other video I have on Acura TL it was mid firing random cylinder you maybe have similar issues I can test by swapping coils
SuitLoops here’s the link to that video czcams.com/video/_YC27w9CRKQ/video.html
wish you show live how you do the back spark plug replace
They are same as front same same the last coil at the end is blocked by the coolant lines u can slightly just push the line and coil just comes right out
RB. Can you do a video on replacing the fuel filter on the 2006 Acura MDX Touring Package? I mean where is it, even?
It dosent have fuel filter none serviceable there is a strainer on the fuel pump which keeps everything out from even enter fuel filter which works like filter no need to service
What size socket fits the spark plugs on the accuracy mdx?
Looks like 16 mm sockets fit on my spark plug. = )
5/8 socket....
Why not replace the coils as well?
Don’t need to unless they go out but it’s ur choice
@@RBTheMechanic cool thanks, the vehicle is almost at 200k so ill do the coils. Great video
@@RBTheMechanic My hands hurt from doing this. I'm 5"5 and had to use a ladder for the back ones. Your video helped a lot, thank you again.
@@TheFire1202 yup back ones I used oil box to step on
Rb. If the check engine light blinks that's the engine misfiring
Yup so u have misfire scan the car for code and check that cylinder for issues
Thank you hermano
its like looking into my engine well,these things all wear exactly the same
Why are you installing Ford plugs in a Acura
The customer brought in the parts to him
Why didn't you show how you did the back spark plugs
Mr. 3LC same process just the back camera angle is not good
He didn't do the back
@@MrRoppppp yes I did
@@MrRoppppp Don't be a troll
@@MrRoppppp coils were laying there from the back
The dealer wants close to $300, they are crazy.
Ohh they crazy DIY bro
@@RBTheMechanic I was calling for the cost of a valve clearance adjustment (I have 325,000 on an ‘06 never had an adjustment) they told me with a new valve cover gasket it would be about $550 which was a lot less than I was thinking.
They asked about doing changing the plugs told me (they like to do it all at the same time- I bet they do lol) it would be close to an extra $300.
I used your video a couple of years back and had changed them myself.
Thanks for the reply.
On a side note every 7 years if you think back the market has had a down turn about this time of year. 80, 1987, 94, 2001, 2008, 2015, 2022? Of course some of those years are very notable others not so much. This coincides with the Schemata year, you can look it up if interested. But not sure about the future but if the cycle is true to form we will know in a few weeks. So might be careful with any investments until October to be on the safe side. Just something to consider. God Bless. Anything occurs feel free to reply back if you like… as I might have more to add. Take care.
@@klujics123 wow that lot of milages but it sure gonna need it I’m doing the valve adjustment on my accord very soon I will make video of it
@@RBTheMechanic what’s even crazier is I bought this from a guy who had all his service done at the dealer. They never recommended a timing belt… 306,000 is when that OME part was replaced. Though that does say something about the quality of Honda parts that it lasted that long. Take care.
@@klujics123 yeah Hondas last long time I got 2004 accord it’s still running original water pump I put in alternator in 2014 original from dealer
Code P0497 need help 06 Acura MDX
Autolites in a honda...ughhh
