I just replaced the plugs and wires on one …. and yes it goes without saying I did all 6. The lady I did the job for bought the car used and it’s clear that the previous owner did the front 3 plugs only because they were halfway decent while the 3 rear plugs had no electrode left they were so badly burnt. It is sad that there are so many people out there doing bang up auto repair jobs thinking they know what they doing and making a video of it.
i went under the engine to get to the other 3 spark plugs without removing anything from the top. that was 3 years ago and i wonder if i should do it again and post a video since no one has post one where all the plugs are change 3 from the top and 3 from under .
Never just replace the front three plugs. The back three if left in can fail after time if you don’t. It will take time however why only do half of the motor? I think an updated video for the back three would be nice. 16 mm and 5/8 are the same. Its normal to have to remove an upper intake on a lot of vehicles. Also might want to consider getting an upper intake gasket set first. It may be a special order and should be available same day if not the one day out. .
Amazing that you would change 3 spark plugs. Who the hell uses a drill to remove those tiny fasteners? Did you see how much dirt and gravel you left laying near the spark plug holes?
YOU SUCK.
This ignition system uses a lost spark coil setup. Chanigng only the front plugs will leave people with a false sense of accomplishment. All plugs must be changed at the same time or you could actually cause more problems than it’s worth. You could be dragging around a weak cylinder causing excessive oil consumption and poor fuel economy. Let for any length of time and you could cause irreparable engine wear or damage. Please people, do proper maintenance on your vehicles!
I just did this job as I had to remove the upper Intake manifold to replace all of the rear cooling lines job sucks you really got to do all six Dealer wanted $475 just for the cooler lines I’d be willing to bet the labor on just the spark plugs should be at least $350
Man That Sucks!! Why in the Fuck n Kia Built that Shit That Way just too make people go thru more stress and dish out more money… damn they sure dont built engines like they use to simple!!
I agree with some of the comments made showing a drill being used or electric rattle gun is a bit of a no no on spark plugs .
As for the rear plugs if they are like the 3.5ltr magnas than the rear three are totally different and a dam site more expensive , they are usually good for i believe 100,000 km so in saying that it was a good video for the basic front plug change out .
The reason it costs a bit of money to replace plugs is due to the labor involved in getting to the back 3 plugs. You haven’t changed out your plugs unless you change all of them. I’m not sure why you would want to change only 3 of 6 plugs. It is ridiculous. The ones in the back last longer?? They are the same plugs. You don’t buy special plugs for the rear. Leave the rear 3 and it will eventually cost you much more later on after they seize and cause damage during removal.
Never show the viewers using an impact gun to remove/install spark plugs (unless the plug is really tight and if it is then let them know that you cant use an impact gun to put the plugs back) also I am not gonna mention about the rest of the three plugs?? because the other viewers have already mentioned it above.
If you want to post a video on how to change spark plugs you should do all six. This is the right way to install. The first part is good but viewers need all the info. Thanks and good luck
there are 3 on the rear under the manifold. They will be very hard to get too. You should really change all 6 at the same time. They would NOT put different plugs in the back. Just want to make sure people get the correct information.
Unfortunately because of time restriction I was only able to show you that you can save money on just doing the front 3 spark plugs. Yes, there are 3 more plugs underneath the manifold and yes you will be charged a lot more for the replacement of the 3 rear plugs, but at the same time the 3 plugs in the rear have longer life to them. Thank you for your concerns.

Is not that easy you still going to end up taking to a dealer or repair shop. You forgot the rear 3 jajaja
believe the vehicle is a 6 cylinder , your half way done , ding dong
I agree… the spark plugs all have the same part number..i.e same life expectancy… the plugs should always be replaced at the same time!!!!
Dumb blonde.
Explain how to replace back plugs.
do u have any issues on this same kia model with the codes p0342 and p0343 which is the cam sensor high and low voltage?
The front three spark plugs replacement is very informative. Can you make a video on how to replace the other 3 spark plugs at the back?

That’s incorrect AND the plug size is an 18 mm NOT 16. Just don’t even pop the hood on any vehicle ever again. Pay ANYONE else to work on it for you.
well 16mm is the same as 5/8
That is not correct, the front 3 has the same life as the rear 3 plugs
Also THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A 16MM SPARK PLUG SOCKET.
Also REMOVE THE NEGATIVE FROM THE BATTERY FIRST.

this job is a bastard, especially the back 3 plugs….
