@@bundysgarage Amazing channel, much appreciated for your efforts on the channel.. I have a 2010 but mine does not say vvt on that plastic guard... it just says something like "Dual somethin-somethin"... it's a 1.8L. I have this seemingly mystical "cold start noise" that the 2009-2013's supposedly suffer from. Are you familiar with it?.. Many say the starter is doing it... the bendix hitting the flywheel or something... I replaced starter motor and still have it. Some say it;s the "vvt" and off hand, I do not believe mine has vvt since it's just a regular 1.8L, 4cyl. basic model. I find it suspicious that no one knows anything for sure.. a solution. My Haynes has 2 options for fixing a "grinding noise on startup"... 1) replace starter, and 2) replace flywheel (since maybe damaged). thoughts? much love mate. (huge thanks and appreciation if you read that)

I think that magnet socket would really help I'm right in the middle of doing a cylinder compression test and I can't get my spark plugs out of my 2014 Corolla I don't know if my socket isn't deep enough or if they're just being stubborn and don't want to come out but I can't seem to get them out I feel like a magnet socket would help... But of course now that I have the car disassembled I don't have a ride to the auto parts store so like I said right in the middle of the job... Waiting on a ride now

Just wanted to say you have the great how to videos. The pictures are sharp and you do a great step by step! I'm a 74 woman and have worked my own cars in the past but when I got my 2012 Corolla and went to change to spark plugs I was baffled. No spark plug wires. Lol. Your video really made the transition easy. Thanks for such wonderful content!

Thank you for this helpful video. I don't see a video in your list covering the oil change for this engine, so I'll share this here. When I did mine (2009 Pontiac Vibe) I discovered that not all filter housing removal tools are created equal. Mine was an extremely tight fit. So much so that when I warmed up the engine to drain the oil it caused the housing to expand so I had to give the tool a few taps with the head of my wrench to seat it properly. Comes the time after re-installation to get it off again and the darned thing is stuck on there! Several hours of anxiously waiting for things to cool down enabled me to remove it and restore my sanity. On a positive note: the job itself was easy.

Great video. Changed mine today after 109,000 miles. They looked pretty warm out, with burnt oil residue. Starts and runs great now. 👍👍🤑

Thank you so much! Your step by step instructions helped me replace my spark plugs and ignition coils on my 2010 Toyota Corolla. I appreciate all of your tips. They were extremely helpful. I hit my knuckles a few times on that piece above it, but saving $$$ was well worth it.

I forgot to mention ! I left one spark plug in , while trying to install a new one ! I was getting frustrated at one point , then I realized I only had 3 old plugs ! Now it started getting dark with just my head lamp looked into the cylinder. Wow it's still in there the old one ! Got the last one installed down the road I went for a test drive ! I'm going to get better ! Your video really saved me BIG BUCKS. And they say mechanics charge a $ 100.00 per hour.

Very handy tip for using a piece of hose/tubing to guide the new plug back into place!

I just did this on my 2019 corolla the engines are literally identical ,great video helped alot

Thanks so much. I've been doing my plugs on older models for decades. I was unsure how to do it on my 2012 Toyota and you gave my the confidence to do it. Thanks.

THIS IS THE NUMBER ONE (BEST) SPARK PLUG REMOVAL VIDEO! GOOD JOB!

Great job, precise and concise! One video suggested using compressed air to blow off this area BEFORE TAKING OUT THE PLUG ! Then he showed two bits of degree that could have been knocked onto the plug hole! I have never seen so much dirt and crap on an engine as was on mine.even a mouse nest so compressed air is the way to go,before I start. Thanks for your vid!

This is super easy. I just purchased a 2012 Corolla LE, 5speed . I did my own oil change & filter & spark plugs. Took me under an hour ❤😊

Thanks for the video, pal. That trick with the hose is quite nifty. Can't wait 'till my spark plugs come in the mail! Should be a piece of cake with the help of this video.

My daughter is bringing her ‘09 Corolla over this weekend for new plugs and tranny fluid, I’ve never done either but this plug video is easy enough for me to teach her. The fluid flush and replace is a little more involved so my neighbor a Toyota mechanic is willing to help with that 👍. I watched a video on the flushing process yesterday and was blown away at the amount of good fluid you have to waste to do a proper flush.

Rock on man! Great helpful vid! Especially with the 5/16 hose

from nkg NGK spark plugs feature trivalent plating. This silver or chrome-colored finish on the threads is designed to provide corrosion resistance against moisture and chemicals. The coating also acts as a release agent during spark plug removal. NGK spark plugs are installed at the factory dry, without lubrication or anti-seize. Anti-seize can act as a lubricant, altering torque values up to 20 percent, increasing the risk of spark plug thread breakage and/or metal shell stretch. Thread breakage can sometimes involve removing the cylinder head for repair. Metal shell stretch changes the heat rating of the spark plug and can result in serious engine damage caused by pre-ignition. Do not use anti-seize or lubricant on NGK spark plugs. It is completely unnecessary and can be detrimental.

At least they changed the oil and tranny fluid. 100k on the Plugs. Im sure glad it ain't hard to change. Way easier than my v6 chevy with 3 plugs ya have to get upside down to pull back plugs out. I hated it and always needed help. This 4 banger I love already !! Granny could defiantly change them.

Great Step by Step Video ... Very Well Explained! Thanks! 😎🤘 🔧 💯

You're like my wife - butter knife is the tool for opening the paint can, gardening, and much much more. I'm sure you have a flat head screwdriver that fits this role even better. I like your technique for getting the spark plug back down there smoothly. It's a detail a lot of youtubers are skipping over. I think it's 15 foot pounds torque if you're trying to this by feel. Years ago the spark plug boxes would describe something like a 1/4 or 1/2 turn after finger tight, so that might be what you're working from.

when I put my spark plugs in my 09 Sentra, I used the spark plug socket, but once the plug was lowered into the engine, I turned the socket to loosen the plug slowly and listened and felt for a click, then I started turning to tighten the plug (by hand of course), did that to make sure I didn't cross thread the plug, as I didn't have any hose to use, and that was my only car at the time and I was miles away from any parts stores.

Clean inside the throttle body and the throttle body plate . When stopped or idling the plate is opened a crack to allow enough air to keep the engine running. Carbon buildup around the edge of the plate will block air causing the idle to drop or cause the car to die out.

Just curious if you should put a small amount of the dielectric grease on the connector to prevent moisture from corroding the contacts?

thanks fixed a coworkers car tonight in 5 minutes. saved him a bundle.

I would say you could use a flat head screwdriver or some needle pliers to remove the coil connectors.

Wow thank you sir

That GEICO joke was actually pretty funny.

1) Don't use anti seize on the threads; 2) use dielectric grease on the seam between porcelain insulator and metal body in exact same area where you see burnt brown ring on the old plug.

Nice video! However, it usually says on most NGK spark plugs to not use anti seize right on the box.

Hello fellow car enthusiasts! I’m happy to be here with you all. I hope we can engage in a productive and beneficial conversation, as we dive right into the troubleshooting of a fuel economy issue... Getting right to it, I’m driving a 2014 Corolla S. With 80,000 miles on it. After much homework I’m coming to conclusions left and right of the 2014 Corolla averaging 40+MPG... I’m only averaging 28.5 MPG?! I’m in the med field, driving only at 3AM or graveyard hours alike.. I travel to and from work each day with no traffic, all freeway, normally 60-65MPH (I’ve lived in the fast lane for many years, that was long enough for me. Please don’t judge me for doing the speed limit! I travel in slow lane, hope that soothes troubled thoughts and wards off unneighborly comments and opinions) Strictly seeking friendly advice and input here. So what are some areas that could be cause for concern? 1) What do you know about the MAF sensor? 2) What do you know about diagnosing fuel trims? 3) What do you know about tire PSI and the amount of affect it has on MPG? What about A/C? 4) What do you know about the negative affect of misfires? 5) What is an upstream and downstream o2 sensor, does this vehicle have either or? 6) Can the o2 sensors affect mileage without throwing a code/MIL/CEL? 7) Any good spark plugs, is iridium plug really the best choice, why? 8) What is a good air filter? 9) Anything besides DENSO recommended for use on this vehicle? 10) Sick of questions and ready for answers? See the comment section, or please give us your input! Thank you for being here and thank you for making a difference, -DG

Just had this done at my local repair shop. Car broke down and had it towed. I did not know what the issue was. Symptoms when a coil goes bad are frightening. Fix cost $1400. They charged $225 for each coil. The rest was labor; they did not replace the plugs. Coils are around $50 each on Rockauto.

Thank you! My car now runs great and the codes are gone.

The MPG on my 2012 Corolla has been way below the figures assumed online. I’ve been getting 20 MPG in the city, and I got tested for a bad alternator at Autozone. There’s only 20,300 miles on my recently used purchased Corolla and it already needs an alternator replaced. Is this common for a bad alternator at this stage and while I need to replace the spark plug or coils at 20k miles? There’s also a slight cracking sound everytime I hit a bump no matter how small it is on the right side and the wheel doesn’t stay stable when hitting the bump at slow speeds either. The cracking noise also happens at very slow speeds, not sure what that could be?

Thanks for your effort and time to put this video together and upload it, I really appreciate people who share their knowledge and expertise. God bless!

Hey! That's my butter knife :-P

Where is the cheapest place I can buy the 5/16 hose? Really helpful video, thanks!

always use black tape and wrap it around once of the 9/16 socket and exten, just a precaution measure . FYI only. have a strong magnet just in case later

Not supposed to really use anti seize on those, that's just what you had to do back in the day. You can strip and over tighten those cuz they got aluminum threads, so put very little I'd recommend.

Use the right socket. I made the mistake of using the regular spark plug socket I use and it got stuck perfectly inside. Had to use a large concrete screw to thread and remove it. Bought the right size socket and it’s a breeze to do.

At 6:15, you add dielectric grease to "have a nice solid connection for electricity to go into." Dielectric grease is non-conductive. Why would you put that between two components that need a good electrical connection? Do you think it's conductive?
