Everybody....heads up!!! At 1:12 when they're messing with the little grey colored tabs to remove the wires....DON'T REMOVE THE WIRES FROM THE COIL/BOOT, JUST LEAVE THEM!!!! I was being gentle with these grey tabs trying to get them off the first two broke, real easily! After those grey tabs are broke that wiring piece does not stay in place on the coil/boot like it should, it will slide loose fairly easily. (The wires slide on and off, they don't snap in place!) A big bump in the road could make it slide back, no joke! So what I did for the last two cylinders was this. Take the bolt out for the coil ONLY. Leave the wire attached! Just pull the coil/boot out with the wire attached, IT WILL COME ALL THE WAY OUT!! This will save you from breaking the tabs and having loose wiring connection.

Just did mine...agree that there is no need to remove the wires...just undo the bolts and pull the coils out from left to right. Put them back in from right to left.

I just changed my spark plugs on my 13 Hyundai Elantra on my own because of your video. Thank you, I love you guys!!

I love this guy's video u helped me a million on my first mechanic job out of tech school at 40 yrs old

My wife and I both own Kia Forte’s with the same motor in them. Well actually my wife’s 2016 has the 1.8 liter engine and my 2017 had the 2.0. Thanks for making this video this will help us in the future because I don’t want to pay someone to do this. I can do some motor work my self by learning.

Just bought 2012 Elantra. Love your videos, Thank you !

Thank you for this. You are the first place I could find that said what size spark plug socket I need for them.

I will be changing my spark plugs! Thanks guys (and gals) you saved me tons of money on other "Hyundai Elantra" videos. I've subscribed and liked to 'help you back' thank you so much for these videos. Quick, simple, straight to the point no non-sense... Absolutely great. Thanks again.

You guys are amazing! Please don’t stop! EVER! 🔥🔥🔥

It's a good video on how to remove the plugs and check the gap on the old plugs. But nothing about putting them back in. Seems simple enough to do it in reverse like you say, but how tight should you tighten them ? Should you spray anything or wipe out anything down there before putting the new ones in ? How do you gap your new plugs without damaging them ? Looking through my manual I could not find anything about the proper gap, so I guess web searches and youtube are your only resource or calling your mechanic for free advice. Thanks for making the video !!

Thanks for the tip on using the ignition coil to remove the spark plug. Big huge hepl.

Just did mine. You don't need to remove the wire connection. Did the 1st one start to finish. The other 3 coils pulled out at the same time. If anyone is wondering how to remember which coil goes where the length of the wire will only let you put it where it goes. It's impossible to get wrong.

Thank you for your help I did it in about 15 minutes For probably about half the cost is it would to pay a mechanic or Hyundai

Yeah it looks easy I'll replace mine I hope I get it right thanks for the video

Great video. Really makes the job super easy. Great tips

Are the ignition coils always this easy to take out. You mention them about getting struck possibly? These seemed to come out easily.

Video was very helpful thank u and u have a new sub keep up the good work because everyone doesnt have hundreds of dollars to maintain certain aspects

Information on dielectric greese and antisieze for this job would be a nice addition

hi, your video is great, how many years have passed, they probably replaced the car, but I have one question, I have error p0301, I replaced everything but it doesn’t help, I don’t know what to do, this error is always there

So far all the videos shows how easy it is to remove the coil. So why am I having problems in removing mine on a 2017 Elantra. I am thinking is that the spark plug and coil got stuck because I put way to much oil in the car. So, any help will be appreciated.

Should we apply anti-seize compound to each of the new spark plugs prior to insertion?

When you are changing the spark plugs in the little clips fall to pieces what do you do? Everything went as planned put everything back together but now the car continues to die I do believe because the little clips busted when I was pulling the wires off

Awesome, Well done!

What type of spark plugs an Elantra 2012 uses ?

What is the torque force

Can you use any spark plug or you need a specific type?

You mentioned that "the engine developed a knock which is common for these engines." What did the "engine knock" sound or feel like? I have 2012 1.8L Elantra with 202k miles on it. I am just getting a little hesitation at idle and sometimes between 5th and 6th gear when under low push. I thought it was a transmission problem. But it does it sometimes in park and neutral too. So I think it is either fuel or spark or another. So what did this "engine knock" seem like. Mine still accelerates very strongly and idles fine most of the time. I'm just getting ready to change out the 202k mile old spark plugs. Thoughts?

Hey guys, tried to change my spark plugs but my standard 5/8 socket doesn't seem to latch or grab on to the socket. Do I need a thin-walled socket?

They sell a socket with a rubber insert that grabs the spark plug, you could also use a long reach magnet to take them out. I suggest harbor freight for tools if you're a DIY. Also, invest in a spark plug install tool, makes life easy and you won't mess up the spark plug gap.

This also applies to the 2010 model.

Use 9686 Bosch double iridium plugs no gap necessary...identical to OEM but 1mm .039 gap instead of 1.1.. or .044...so the idle smoother last longer and misfire less...ans are 1/2 the cost of oem plugs

Can someone please explain how this video helps for a 2016 Hyundai Elantra Sport 2.0L? There is a water pump on top the valve cover and two lines come off of it. The two lines are blocking the pathway for the fourth coil pack to come out. The car has a GDI engine and no turbo. Can y’all please do a video or explain in detail how to remove the fourth coil pack with those lines in the way? The OEM service manual from Hyundai doesn’t even mention messing with the the lines to get coil pack out. Please help or explain cause this video doesn’t show that at all.
