Just finished a change. Took 2 hours. Very grateful for this video, thank you.

Excelent video! Unlike others you actually described from where we need to detach hoses and number of screws to be removed in a step by step approach. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I have saved your video and plan to change spark plugs and ignition coils. I have cylinder # 5 miss firing on a 2017 Jeep Cherokee Overland that has 62K mileage, original owner. I’m hoping this will resolve the issue. Thank you again and keep uploading great videos.

This video was very helpful. It helped me understand exactly why, for a million dollars I would NEVER do this job myself!

Really...? For a million dollars.

Did this last night on my 2016. Thanks for the vid. I would love to have a conversation with the knucklehead engineers that designed this vehicle. In particular the back right bracket bolt that is sleeved and zip tied to that huge wire shroud. Was not fun. Thanks again.

THANK YOU. I had a shop quote me a grand for the spark plugs and a new air filter. These are things I now how to do myself but I've never done it on a newer vehicle. While the Jeep design leaves a lot to be desired, your video made it is so easy to navigate. I appreciate you making this video. It's so easy to follow and navigate in the engine with your help. Thank you thank you thank you.

I am going to attempt this when my parts arrive. Thanks for the video, you gave me a great guide to follow.

Thanks for this tutorial on spark plugs and coil insulation replacements. Thanks to your tutorial, I successfully replaced the spark plugs and coil insulation in my 2015 Jeep Cherokee Limited V6 3.2 Liter. Fortunately, the engine components in the Trailhawk is identical to those in the Limited. Your tutorial helped me when the Haynes Automotive Repair book did not. ONCE AGAIN ... THANK YOU!

This video is exactly what I needed to see. You pointed out a lot of things that may not have been obvious in the disassembly process. Thank You.

Big thanks. Got my 2015 V6 Cherokee Latitude taken care of after a P0303 code and it runs like butter now. Those old spark plugs I took out looked like hell. Saved me a ton of money to do it myself.

Glad it helped.

Awesome video. This is what I'm doing today. That, and rear drum brakes on a Chevy Colorado and a window motor of a Toyota Rav 4. Busy day.

Incredibly helpful - excellent detail - thank you so much for taking the time to document and share this !!!

Thanks for the video. I finally changed the spark plugs on my 2014 Cherokee limited after 185k miles today. I may just have been lucky. It took me about two hours and wasn’t bad at all. The car was still running well until recently when it started throwing a cylinder three misfire code. I have not had any major issues with the car since I bought it new in 2014.

Well I hope all your misfire was for was that spark plug. I wouldn’t want to worry you at all, but if you notice you are missing any coolant there is a chance that you could possibly have a head gasket/head issue. You could perform a simple block test to check for exhaust fumes in the radiator to identify a potential head gasket issue. 185k could just have been due for plugs, but if it continues with that code I’d hate for it to be a gasket leak.

Great video! But note, the air box has a plastic locking pin next to the 10mm bolt on the top left- I believe the first one pointed out- that you can remove to avoid breaking the mount that he pointed out. And also, I wrapped my spark plug socked in electrical tape and added a tail so I could pull it back out more easily from the back.

appreciate this; gave me a heads up on what I would be getting into. That black plate was really tough for me to get on/off. Also, I couldn't fully remove the screw with the threaded plastic cap next to that hose. I just pried the plate off by loosening everything.

great detail and extremely helpful

Thanks budd, the instructions you provided were on point and the tips were gold. Sincerest thanks 👍

P.s. After all this work how much more is involved in replacing coil and injector? Code indicated an issue with spark plug, coil and injector in cylinder 1 only. Thanks in advice for any advice 😊

Thanks this was a great guide.

Note that, molded into the top of the manifold cover is a torque spec - "7-9 Nm"

Don’t you need to replace intake manifold gasket every time you take it off?

how long did it take from start to finish?

What did old spark plugs look like? How bad were they?

Holy fuck, all this work to change plugs!!!

thank you, much appreciated

Thank you for an excellent video. Concise and informative...

OMG WTF!!! I seriously can't believe it's this hard to change spark plugs ...no wonder it's every 100,000

Thank you.

Blue masking smart

1/2 inch screw on the back bracket. I cannot find that.

all this just to change plugs? ridiculous!

Thank you for the clear and detailed step-by-step. Who designs engines like this!? Changing spark plugs should be a 30 minute task, not a half-day.

It took that long because of the learning curve.

I broke those clips too on the front and back. I barely pulled on it. 5:17

have a falta they changed an engine Mountain an the drivers side and they disconnected the fuse box and when I reconnected it no longer started

Thanks for taking the time for this helpful video? Wondering why did you replace your plugs? I have a cylinder #5 misfire code currently.

When I bought the Jeep it had around 90k miles and I just wanted to replace them as general maintenance on the new purchase. The originals probably could have lasted much longer but I also didn’t want to wait until one went bad.

Plus stock they used copper spark plugs instead of iridium

Does anyone know the size of socket for spark plug

Cuál es la calibración de las bujías ?

you should definitely be using a torque wrench when screwing things into aluminum.

Awsome now witch one is cylinder #5

How is everyone getting this damn bracket off the manifold dude?! Mine will not budge, slide, push or anything. My bolt is backed way the f out and it will not come out either.

Clips were broke on mine too:(

the plastic becomes brittle after all those heat cycles, that's life

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH , you covered the Oil Filter Housing , I was hoping to see that as I need to change it . can you tell me if that part was visible ?

My Name stop the video at 1:55. In the center bottom of the image you see a black hexagonal shape with internal ribs (looks sort of like the old empty markers for a Trivial Pursuit). That shape is the top of the oil filter housing and is what you put a hex socket on to remove - the entire top part of the housing turns. Seriously annoying it is plastic, be careful not to damage or strip the housing when removing or reinstalling.

I have a code for #5 spark plug.

Suddenly the $300 the shop was going to charge me doesn't seem like so much... Leave it to Dodge to make something as simple as a spark plug change as complicated as this.

Looks like they put the spark plugs on bench then built the jeep around them...absolutely terrible design . I'd never buy one

Buy a droplight or some other lighting.

This is a damn shame . They make sure u have to take it to the dealer to change these 😒

Good luck getting that box off without breaking those clips. Jeep engineers are dumb as hell to not have put a bolt in the front

Another easy job made difficult by carmakers

That part you said someone broke, it's screwed in with those retainers. Figured out that the hard way. You broke it, not the last guy
