How hard is it to change sparkplugs on our cars.

 

I am not sure but I will let you know soon. About to hit 60K miles. I already bought the plugs, going to install them when it cools down some (Florida). That being said, it looks easy if you just take your time moving things out of the way to get to them.

 

Ok Thanks bro yeah I feel you on that heat dame here in Georgia

 

If you know how to use tools, it's not that hard. Some tips that I can recall off the top of my head, mainly to give yourself a tiny bit more room to work: remove the control modules bolted on either side of the heads, remove battery completely to get to those back two cylinders, don't be afraid to unclip wire harnesses - just remember to put everything back. Don't think I had to go crazy with extensions or swivels, just that a few are pretty tight to get to. Take your time and don't smash your beer on the ground in frustration.

 

Thanks and not to mention I have big hands.Lol..well at lease I don't have to take the upper intake off.

 

Ahhh...just like my '08 IS250.
I think that was about 5 hours by the book if I remember. It was a real pain.

Hoping the RC-F is easier...I'm at 58K miles now

Strange that there aren't any YouTube videos out there for the RC-F or the GS-F

 

Yeah my wife has a is 350 and one shop said you have to remove the upper intake and another one said that don't

 

I lifted mine ever so lightly. It was enough to work around. I never replaced the intake gasket either....and never had an issue in the 50K miles after

 

Thanks for the information

 

Good question, I’d like to know myself.

 

Changed my plugs a couple of years ago. I used a tutorial in one of the stickies, took a while, but wasn't bad at all. Just take your time.

 

Good info.Jey where can I find the tutorial at

 

My bad, wrong sub-forum. I changed plugs on my 08 IS-F, here's the tutorial I used, may be helpful for RC-F:
