MBman Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 SO new code - shows coil pack number one cylinder, I look and it appears I have to take intake off. I am an average DIYer , should I attempt. She has 120K , so I thought I'd tackle the plugs too Any one do this and should I attempt in my garage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetfixer01 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I haven't done plugs yet, but the service manual says that the entire cowl area needs to be removed to get to the rear bank of plugs. That means wiper arms and motor, etc. If indeed you must remove all of that, it looks like quite a chore. If you are handy and have a good selection of tools, it might be possible to get to them without taking all that off. There's nothing that requires a dealer visit, but you should expect it to take a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBman Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 strange thing is the CEL went off, been running perfect. I bought plugs and coil pack but am waiting to see what happens. Plug interval is `125K, and I am at 115 so I am going to wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
