Time for some much needed maintenance this weekend!
Time for some much needed maintenance this weekend!
How hard were the last 2 plugs on each side? I have an 04 bought in 2006 with 42,000 now it has 160,000 and I have never changed the plugs due to fear of breaking them. Just found out after a CEL that I have the 2 piece plugs so I am thinking of trying to change them prior to a 8 hour round trip drive coming up soon. I do my own brakes, oil, COP and any other repair that I think I can handle like the Window Regulator and my plugs on an Acura TL but these alway scared me. I have very large hands so I am not sure how tight of a spot the back plugs are??
I am in the same boat as the rest of you. About two weeks ago I bought an '06 with 75k miles on her. Last week on the freeway I started getting the dreaded 'buck' at 50mph. It has steadily gotten worse over the week. I am about to drop the bucks to order the plugs, and the extractor tool. I may replace the COPS as well, but I am still undecided on that.
What plugs are recommended?
