Items Required:
-Ratchet and sockets
-Torque Wrench
-Spark plug socket 16mm
-Socket extension
-New platinum spark plugs
-New upper inlet plenum gasket
Thanks mate not a bad job. My car was on limp mode for the last 4 months. struggled to accelerate, it would sputter while accelerating, couldn't driv3 properly on a motorway.. it was so annoying but gave this a crack and my car drives amazingly now ❤
My Vz commodore working fine one day parked in garage next day started to miss like crazy. Took to local mechanic who located the problem, replaced plugs and coil packs and gasket.$650 aus dollars. Could not understand why until I saw your video
and easy understanding of what was done, Great work thanks for the education keep up the info for dummies like me ...
peter linden about to pay $560 myself lol, but I did watch this video first. I’m just not brave enough to take all those things off and put it back together. I used to have a small Pulsar on which I replaced the spark plugs heaps of times as the access was exposed.
@@sadigolestani mate just follow the video step by step you'll be right and it'll save you a lot of money
One ripoff mech quoted me 1k at first then $860 roughly. My car quoted me $650.00. Not cheap at all
Thank you so much for the instruction, Mufudzi!
I did this today on my 60th anniversary Commodore, and it worked like a dream.
Nothing went wrong at all.
Thanks for this video! Car has been running rough for a few months and as a new driver I've been terrified it was my timing chain. So glad it's just spark plugs! Very informative vid
Love the fact you show all the part numbers, great work! Thanks man!
Jackpot!! My exact same symptom on the exact same model Commodore (it's even cyl. no.4). I haven't personally worked on my cars for 30 years. Mufudzi showed me how much more complicated a spark plug changeout has become. I may take mine to an experienced auto mechanic.Thanks
Your a legend, my mechanic quoted me 2K To get this fixed and with your help I did it for $200 thanks!
Glad to hear it's helped you.
2K!!..wtf?...his daughter must have been getting married
I was going to say... $2k? 🤯 I recommend you find a new mechanic.
I'm guessing he quoted you 2k because he didn't want to do the job lol
@@michaelgooley229 or bloody retiring … 😳
Thanks Brother I’m gonna do my SV6 tomorrow love your work👍🏽
Very informative vid mate and learned exactly what I needed plus more! Cheers.
Perfect, I had misfire cylinder 4 also, I just fixed it, replaced coil, this video helped heaps, thanks for sharing 👍
Going up hill my car jerks is this the same thing?
@@17hmr243 could be - but you need a code scanner to diagnose it exactly.
@@pakjohn48 had spark plugs cracked on 4 of them coils wer jumping under load replaced fixed the isue

Very helpful and showing the part numbers also helps out heaps, great video man, love your work.
cheers mate saves me going to a mechanic who tried to charge me 1900 for a service including replacing coils and spark plugs
There trying to rip you off
Gotta hate that bolt at the rear of the plenum that sits under the firewall lip. Makes an otherwise easy job pretty frustrating. Good job mate, you got yourself a sub.
First time working on a ve, good video. I have miss fire on 2&4 🤞 it's just the plugs
Man your a absolute legend, video helped me out so much 🙌 defiantly subscribing 🤙🏼
Cheers from Michigan USA, thanks for the help!
Fantastic service and communication!
Didn't know it was this hard but this video helps a lot
Thanks for the uploads, much appreciated...
All good, glad its helped you out. Dont forget to subscribe for more.
Good video mate. I've got the same issue with mine. Which just decided to shudder it's entire way home today. The cars on its way out anyway, so if I kill it more in the process I don't really care.
Jesus Christ so much different to change spark plugs these days lol I have a ve ute at least I know now I have to go get those gaskets, great video thanx a lot for your help 👍
Only need to change gasket if it's not metal.
@@MufudziGambiza ok thanx alot appreciate your help 👍
Nice work mate. Love that Aussie Accent
You are a king for this mate
Great vid mate, will be doing this on the missus car tomorrow. Just finished pulling the head out of my navara and wish there was helpful vids like this for that job... thanks!
Thanks mate glad you enjoyed it. I've been thinking about buying a Navara d40 actually what are they like?
@@MufudziGambiza Hey man, the old man had one for 10 years with no issues, towed weekly and a fair bit of off-road and loved it. I was loving mine (09 d40 ST-X) until a couple of plastic pieces in the cooling system completely gave way about 12 months apart and dumped my coolant, which ended up resulting in the cracked head... if you get one, the first thingg I'd do is replace the plastic T-piece that goes into your heater core with a brass equivalent, and then upgrade the plastic elbow that sits right next to the t-piece (and also goes into heater core), so that you don't have the same issue. Apparently it's quite common. That and try make sure you get a model with the dual link timing chain if you plan on towing. All in all though has been a pretty good car, but as Nissan do, they cheap out where they can which can end up leading to big problems.
thanks, mate, cheers from Australia!
Good job mate, nice easy to understand video.
I like it when he goes super fast :)

Thanks for the video. Very helpful
Great video, thanks!!
just got the po302 code today so its off to the shop tomorrow for the parts :)
well articulated video...although you made this job look easy compared to some other knuckle heads out there,ive decided to throw it to my mechanic for the sake of $150 that he quoted to replace plugs,coils & plenum gaskets.(1&1/2hrs work)...cheap as dirt for the time & root around.. i'd make a career out of it anyways...still,a very helpful guide as to what he'll be up to under my bonnet...heck,i may even pay a little extra to get him to check that problematic PCV....i could even push my luck & ask him to drill those microscopic holes out a little for me lol
Doing this job this week, thanks mate, very helpful vid. 👍
Thankyou. Interested to know more about the scanner you use. If you can do a vid about that. Which one what it dies how to install/use would be great🙏
Thanks mate good vid
Good video very helpfull
Thanks, just what i needed
thanks mate about to do the same on a mates car
After taking out bolts I am unable to remove manifold? Should I tap it or lever it loose?
Awesome mate.
Great job I have a vz
Hey Mufudzi Great video, in the video you show the engine light on the dash and diagnostic , what did you use to check the fault and what program have you got on your phone. thanks Peter
Thanks for that brother 👍
I got my holden vz serviced at auto tune with new spark plugs and coils and gasket like you've done. But the aircon only comes out the vents to the windscreen and not the front facing vents. Is this a coincidence or is it possible the mechanic disconnected something
Well done great video
how did you know what parts to get. Does the app tell you what parts need to be replaced.
Great video. Can you please help,where is the crank angle sensor on a VE 2010 3.6 litres
thanks
Great info, thanks
Thank you so much for your video, save me $$ from going to local dealer.
Thanks for sharing. Your rock :P
awesome vid bruh whats the torque on the inlet manifold bolts ?
Bro got a problem with my ve Leo engine I scanned it n showed me throttle position sensor, I replaced that still showed the code n is not starting still cranks but nothing any idea would help.
Nicely explained, 1 question though, did you space the spark plugs to the manufacturers specification or did you plug and play
Do you have any videos of O2 sensor replacements?
Hey mate , do you have a link for the after market air intake on your alloytec? Thanks
Nice my man, Thanks 👍
Should I put gasket glue on the gasket
Hey mate thanks for this video. Does it work the same way and same spark for factory LPG model? Cheers
Great video mate. Do you have a link for the dongle?
Great video Mufudzi! I have a question. I have a 2009 Holden VE 3.6L V6. I’ve been been having a cylinder misfire issue for quite some time. While driving , the car starts stalling and also with a vibration. Once the engine is stopped and restarted , it goes away. This issue occurs randomly. I have replaced plugs and coils but the issue remains. Dealer thinks it may be electrical. Check engine light comes up with an alarm and the error codes show all 6 cylinders misfiring which is quite unusual. Appreciate if you could share your thoughts on what might be the issue ?
Great video my bro.what scanning program you using and hiw
Mate thanks heaps thats an awesome video.
Thanks, good video 👍
Good job man
how possble can you check the car problem on the phone please? that's cool.
