Christ this is just absolutely ridiculous! I've never seen such a mess just to get to a few spark plugs! You have the patience of a saint!
Blame it on the mechanical engineers who design this shiz & pass building & maintaining the auto to the next arse-hole 😾
I've done it, and going to do it again soon... lol
I have had a 2010 for 10 years now, when I had that problem, I gave it to the first bidder, I didn't know that to change 3 spark plugs you had to remove so many rotor cover filter covers, for which a mechanic charges me, I bought another one
I used your method to remove that hard 12mm bolt. Tried multiple different things, but nothing worked for me except your socket and rachet method coming in from the right, and using my left hand to guide the socket. MAF sensor and throttle body cleaning was also helpful.
Thanks a lot for this video. For spark plug I was trying from the other side to remove the second plenum nut and failed, I will try your method this week. Thanks again!
2:36 love how you kept calm LOL.
Thanks for this video, Im doing this over the weekend on my HL
I did this exact thing and f-cking lost it. Every swear word in the book. Had to remove the plastic underneath. Pisses me off now even thinking about it.
Ponyo Tran, thank you, THANK YOU! You don’t know how much that helped! I didn’t want to have to pay a fortune to have a garage do that, but I was dreading doing it myself. After your very helpful instructional video, well made and detailed, your helpful step by step, I did it and the job was not bad at all. Certainly a challenge but easily handled based so much of your video help. THANK YOU! I will subscribe and like!
Good job documenting this process. I did this and broke the clip in the back on the wiring harness. Learn by error.
Thank you, I've been looking for detailed instruction (step by step) of how to replace a spark plug for a long time for my toyota highlander then i found this.
Excellent detail. It will save me some time!! Thanks for taking the tile to make this video.
Outstanding video! Thank you so much for the step by step guidance! I am going to use your video for reference to change my plugs. Keep up the great work:)
Wow, this is a hell of a job!! Thank you for sharing
Excellent job
Thank you for the tip about using silicone lubricant to free up the air intake hose from the throttle body. I was battling it for 20 mins till I used a little spray and it freed up.
Thank you very much for very detail oriented video. Very educational!😊
You swapped the first and third set of planum manifold gaskets at 39:34 from original location when removing them from the intake to planum manifold. Planum was in upside-down position so they should have gone in opposite order. If the gaskets are OK it doesn't matter much as you cleaned the intake manifold nicely.
Nevertheless the video is way better than most others as you took time not only to do the job slowly but filming it in great details with patients. I like how you marked the hoses before removing them, it is a good habit to practice.
I have the same engine in 2010 Toyota Aurion (Australian V6 Camry) and when asked the local shop to replace my spark plugs they wanted to charge me a fortune. In Toyota dealer it was even worst. They wanted my arm and the leg and the firstborn for it. Since this job is actually doable with lots of patients and care I decide to do it myself. Yes there are fiddly parts of the job, but I think at least I will know what exactly has been done on my car and no apprentice was working and learning on it.
This job is done only on every 120K kms so it is not the end of the world. My car has done only 90Ks and I checked one of the spark plugs from the front and still in good shape so I will wait another 30Ks. Just not sure if I should replace the coils as well while at it. They are genuine coils but new genuine coils are very expensive. Thanks for the upload.
i think you should change the coil too since you got everything off. Because those coil do intend to go bad.
Thanks. Very useful video.
by following your video helps a lot, thank you
great video thank you for your help!
Great explanation , thank you bro
I need to do this soon!
Thanks best one out there
great job!
This is a great video. And it actually helped me make a big decision about tackling a tune-up myself or taking it to the shop. So much can go wrong that I'll take my 3.5 to the shop. The 2.4 is easy enough to do at home but this? I'd like to have some kind of warranty in case things get broken during all of the disassembly.
Thank you 😃
Yeah it's quite a job, however if you can lay across the engine after you've disconnected the tray, and taken off the bracket etc. you can avoid disconnecting the plenum... I've done it three years ago this month and will be doing it again soon...lol.. Amazon as of this date are selling the denso iridium plugs for 12 bucks each.... Good luck to y'all!!!
Wow. I thought the spark plugs were tough on my 03 Avalon. This is 10x worse.
Good work ! How many miles were on this one? I have one at. 80k.
What is the part number for that spark plug swivel? I have to do this job this weekend
Why would they hide spark plugs so deep in the engine? See what the technician had go through to reach them.
Not good Toyota, not good.
Idiot automotive engineers in both Asia and North America design crap that cannot be maintained easily.
Shit. It isn't like changing the plugs on my 58 Ford or 64 Impala. In those days one had to change them once a year and maybe clean and re-gap them every half year. But I could see me dropping some stuff into the engine bay. I'm wondering about the order of replacing intake MF "nuts" and their torques. Thanks.
I know this video is long, but it makes it realistic. Nothing was cut so you know what challenges you will run into. Videos my others just skip those parts and go too fast. Thanks!!
Pcv valve nằm ở phút thứ mấy thế? Tìm Hoài ko thấy
Hi Ponyo
Sorry if it is a noob question.. just wondering why do you need shake the new spark plug.. what does that check for?
Just to check the botton white tip, to see if it loose.
Someone can just drop it by accident before gaveing to you and could come loose.
Do you have any idea sir why my 2grfe camry vibrates with sound whenever im in idle and in gear (both drive and reverse) but in neutral and in park its smooth?
Motor mount?
😊
What no one sees is the position of your body as you reach in to do this repair, as a 75 year old man 6'-4" and 250# I do not have the dexterity flexibility or assorted sockets and rachet handles and magnetic style sockets. With so many disconnects and those plugs that have the clip on a 12 year old Highlander I dread even beginning. I have not asked but I'm thinking a spark plug and PCV valve change would probably be $300.00 two hours shop time xat $120.00/hr and $80.00 parts. While the vehicle is in a ship, I'd have radiator fluid drained and refilled, brakes checked and oil/filter changed. Easily $750.00 or more.
why didnt you change the manifold gasket and TB gasket , isnt it better to change them instead of using the old ones
Yes is better to replace it. but if the old is still good, than it fine to reused it
Did you remove rhe battery terminals i worry the ecu will need ti be trained if i remove the terminal. Thanking in advance.
No i didn't removed the negatie terminal.
@@ponyotran2996 thanks
Hey, have you forgot to put the bolt & bracket back in, the one behind the manifold ?
Such a filthy engine bay. Also looks like a hack job for sure.
Watching is painful. What were the Toyota designer's thinking.
@ 54:00,,,,,,,need to blow out every plug chamber with air gun before pulling the plug
On cleaning master air sensor minutes 6:33 .. you are spraying what? cleaning with what ? , dud you need to explain that or add to your video. Sorry !! but I think you are not professional I'm not going to continue watching you video, because I think is dangerous.
