Inspired! I like when you giving out details over the nooks and crannies of removing the intake manifold, it’s a bit of work just to replace 3 spark plugs on the other side but it is what it is and I learn a lot from here. I just bought a 2007 IS300 yesterday and it’s around 198000KM mileage. I will get my hands dirty on those plugs today. You deserve my sub and like. 👍🏻

Excellent tutorial! I’ll be replacing plugs and coils on my daughter’s 2008 IS250 this weekend and this was very helpful. Subscribed so I can get help on other maintenance. I’m a confident mechanic, but now I see why the shop charges more - although doing it myself I can change the plugs and all coils for less than they’d do just the plugs.

Glad you liked the tutorial! I used to work at a shop doing this type of work all day long and it isn't so much just the labor costs but the overhead it costs to run a shop. Shops can be so so wasteful for things like rags, cleaners and just general laziness of techs which drives up operational costs for the dealership. In the end, I left the dealership and went off on my own and even though some of my cars have warranty on them that I forgo warranty b/c I have major trust issues with the dealer/shops messing with my cars. I don't think I've ever gone to one that hasn't screwed up something. I have very good memory of where things belong and what fasteners look like. The moment I raise my car up on my own hoist to see what was done I immediately knew they substituted screws out b/c they dropped mine into the drainage pit and didn't bother going to the parts department to get the matching screw to put in its place.... stuff like that drives me BAT SHIT CRAZY and I'm leaving the dealership pissed off. No thanks... nobody can do work better than myself for MY cars because I actually care about what I do. Good job on you for taking on this task!

Great to hear!

Thank you for your quality videos! I recently bought an '08 IS250 Base A/T for my wife. I did not realize it at the time of purchase that the car we had bought had staggered rims. I am a novice home mechanic, at best. Upon further research, I came to the conclusion that unless one were to make a tire changing station at home, only a tech would install staggered rims on a vehicle. As it turned out, the owner's husband was previously a Lexus tech, now wkg for BMW. I have had my share of disappointments with at least 30 technicians, the majority of them unwilling to do what it takes to get the job done right the first time. Thanks to people like you, who care enough to share your skills & knowledge on YT, I can pursue my own repairs with a certain amount of confidence. The car's obd2 has recently thrown up some cylinder misfire warnings to tell me it's time to replace the spark plugs (and likely the coils while I'm at it). I will replay your video another 5x before I attempt the teardown in order to get to the spark plugs. In the video, you showed the NGK plugs, and your link points to Denso 4705 plugs. The link from my local Lexus dealership identified Denso FK20HBR11 as the plugs for my wife's car, although Amazon's fitment algorithm indicates that the 4705 plugs will fit. Considering that the car is now over 14 yrs old, I would prefer to spend my money on what gives me the best durability. Do you have a preference? If YT allow, I will include the link to the dealership page: parts.lexusofconcord.com/p/Lexus_2008_IS-250-AT/Spark-Plug/62975795/9091901249.html

Hey Neil, sorry for taking forever to reply. Yes you're correct in the listings vary for the plugs and for absolutely certainty for fitment you can get them from the local Lexus dealership. Ultimately if you go with the 4705 plugs you should be fine as I vaguely remember that was what I used. Personally I'm a NGK plug person but sometimes affiliate links from Amazon doesn't always have the plugs available to link in my videos. Having said, that my preference of plugs? Denso supplies Toyota with sparks plus and NGK supplies Honda with their plugs. Naturally, I use both and like both equally as much. Hope that helps.

Excellent explanation. Very professional , and clearly spoken English, many thanks.

Glad you liked my video. Hopefully your plug replacement will go without a hitch. Here's a tip - make sure you order the fuel line gasket that bolts onto the intake manifold. I've had quite a few comments on where to get the gaskets and my answer is always Toyota/Lexus. Give them your VIN and they will be able to pull up the specific parts diagram that will show the part #. SUPER important since you're dealing with fuel (despite barely having any fuel in that line you have to remove).

3 жыл бұрын

yep good advice for those that aren't sure. Fortunately in Toyota's case I have found that the metal intake manifold gasket is VERY reusable (even the shops that work on Toyota's don't always replace them). That being said, that isn't to say that proactively replacing the gasket is a bad thing. It is a lifesaver to do a job once and not have to tear it apart a 2nd time IF the old gasket started to leak.

If this is how all mechanics care of every car they work on then I would feel very confident to have my car worked on by them which I know it's unlikely. I want my car worked on by this guy! I watched this video to change the spark plugs in my daughters car but after watching how much you have to remove then more than likely I'll be having several left over screws😅

aww thanks! I get that comment a lot from my clients which is why I guess I keep fixing cars the way I do. I actually care about what I do and am not paid by the hour to complete the job. I'd rather take my time doing it right than hacking it b/c I'm trying to "beat the clock". Yes there is quite a bit to remove just take your time, take pictures if you must and place the bolts on a table that has the same "positioning" as they would on your engine. ie bolts from the back driver's side would sit on the top right corner of a table. This ways you have a general sense of where things got removed from and where they need to go back.

Did this on my IS 250 RWD, everything went smoothly.. Only thing that differed was the fuel line with the crush washers, the line did not exist in my car. Maybe it's something that only AWD has or it's different in EU models, either way great guide. I did buy the washers, the dude at Lexus found it when we checked the part list for my engine but there's no fuel line to the manifold in my car. The bolt behind the manifold was a bitch... Probably took me 25 minutes to get it off at it was super tight until the very last thread and there's no room to turn the bolt. I would also recommend having a spare spark plug seal or two, dropped one into the engine room and it seems there's some black hole that swallowed it...

Wato here from australia. Just replaced my plugs with this tutorials help it was excellent. Just a few differences with a right hand drive model. We don't have the fuel connection into the manifold which is one less step, but make up for it by having an electrical connector at the back of the manifold, virtually impossible to get to to disconnect and you cant remove the manifold without disconnecting it so i just cut the holder, won't effect anything. Other difficult bolt was the one holding the manifold to the throttle body, fairly easy to get off but a pain to replace, i dropped mine and it disappeared lol so shove plenty of rags under the throttle body to catch it, a magnetic screwdriver is handy as well to retrieve it. I replaced the gaskets but the old ones looked ok, also replaced the throttle body gasket while the manifold was off, doubt ill be doing it again thank goodness. Added bonus the car started and runs like a champ!

I love the newest Honda Accord V6 coupes, don't you? I wonder how easy they are to do the standard maintenance on like fluid changes and spark plugs? Thanks for the detailed vids. Not everyone on YT has the patience to include every single precaution like you that is so important for a beginning wrencher.

@piercedasian

8 жыл бұрын

As you tell from my channel I am very much a Honda guy. My Toyota truck is my 1st toyota that I purchased but I still wish it were a honda. So much easier to service their cars especially their V6 engines compared to Toyotas. Doesn't mean I don't like Toyota though... I love my Tundra and loved the Camry my father used to loan me to drive. The latest accord V6 coupe is a slick looking car. Fully agree with you that it's purdy... Yes this gen of IS was nice looking. The new ones really botched the front grill.... I don't like them at all. Fluids and such are relatively easy. Brake fluid flushing is done exactly the same way as I show in my Honda brake fluid flush video. Tranny fluid is easy to do as well but my understanding is some toyotas don't have user serviceable trannys anymore. On this gen of IS I believe it can be done easily using the Toyota WS fluid. I haven't done the tranny on this one but I think it is the same as previous toyotas. Yes devils are in the details. May YT assume people know what they're doing. I treat everyone like they're new to the wrenching game so you can't possibly screw up with my vids. Knowledge is power right?

For the back bolt remove the injector from the 2 10mm bolts on the injector attaching it to the intake. Watch out for that o-ring. This will free up much needed space for working and actually seeing the bolt for removal. The best tool is a break-neck socket with a 12mm socket. Get a cheap one at harbor freight or where ever. Also, after seating the intake for re-install do not tighten bolts yet, because a little bit of "wiggling" will be needed to reinstall the infamous back-bolt and the other one holding the intake near the throttle body.

Thanks for the video.

Only use NICKEL based antiseize and never copper based as you don't want a slow but damaging galvanic reaction to start in the cylinder head. Dielectric grease isn't a bad thing if it is a tiny dab of it but since coil packs are quite well sealed and sit directly over the plug and underneath an engine cover that the changes of dirt and water getting into the coil boot is quite slim. I sometimes apply a tiny bit of dielectric grease onto the boot when I feel it "sticking" during removal.

Cool video thank you you rock

Best DYI video by far! For those who are not knowledgeable about parts, can you share the OEM part numbers for the fuel line crush washers? I can't find the diagram anywhere on the net. Thanks in advance!!

Glad you liked the video. Unfortunately it's been so long since I did this video that I don't remember what the part #'s are. You can get them if you call your local dealership b/c that is where I got all the parts from.

Hi, were you able to find washers?

Great vid w/ good tips! Since the throttle body was removed, does the idle needs to be relearned? If yes, can u show how w/o computer?

If memory serves me correctly that all I did was bolt everything back together, engage the parking brake, turned of ALL electrical loads and just started up the engine and let it run for 20-30 minutes without interrupting the idle on it. Car's been driving find since.

Good video! ❤

Glad you liked it! yes I need to point that disconnection of the battery MORE often. Its crazy how much I take that step for granted b/c I work on cars so much and have the experience to know what I can and cannot do with certain steps and sometimes I forget to mention them. I will try better to point that out next time.

you likely unplugged a connector somewhere during your disassembly and forget to firmly plug it back in. The code you reported is a camshaft position sensor which likely was something you unplugged during your fix and either forgot to or did not firmly plug the connector back in.
