spark

I've always done most maint. on every car I've owned (oil, plugs, plug wires, brake pads/drums, etc..). In other words, the simple stuff. Quick intro: I have a pre-owned, 2013 GC Base model, that had 20K on it when I bought it, so I have some very general questions: 1. Are the "stock" plugs...

New gen coupe 2.0 turbo OEM spark plugs fs 50$ shipped or 45$ picked up in SoCal la ie are

Did it last night in about two hours, in no particular rush. Didn't need anything 'special' to make the change. Spark plug socket, long and short extensions, 10 mm socket, that was pretty much it. I had a swivel-joint that helped a little bit but could have done with out it if needed. The...

I called the dealer to get a quote for spark plug replacement so when my car needs them changed, I have an idea of what I will be spending. They quoted $400 for the 8 plugs to be done, but the tech did mention that they have not done one yet, so the Genesis hasn't been technically priced out...

I just checked with the dealer and they want $430 to replace the plugs in my GF's Sonata LX V6 which runs awesome and has 60,000 miles on it. Wow little spendy but, I know I can either do it myself, or find a non-dealer to do it for less so I'm not worried. Can't imagine what the Genesis V8...
