a lot of parts to remove to change sparks plugs i wouldn;t even dream of trying on my buick.i miss those cars of the seventies everything was so simple to do without having to remove half the engine.
i go to get into car today ,i push on brake and hit start button ,i heard the anti brake machine gun sound before i sat in car just by opening the drivers door .i push button a few more times ,nothing thats when i seen check engine light flashing insanely fast . the messages came on my display as well it read ,SERVICE STABILI TRAK with a "((p))"with an open wrench symbol underneath it ,THEN THE OTHER MESSAGE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM UNAVAILABLE with the symbol of what looks like my remote and the place where you put it to emergency start vehicle in a situation of dead remote battery ,i had four spares and i changed it ,didnt help !!!! ,I ALSO HAD THE CAR SYMBOL WITH THE TWO SKID MARKS BEHIND IT LIKE DOUBLE LIGHTNING BOLTS STAY ON TOO . AFTER WATCHING THIS I FELT SOME RELIEF AS MY CAR IS 10 MILES STRANDED AWAY FROM ME ! ANY ADVICE MUCH APPRECIATED ! MY CAR IS A 2011 BUICK LACROSSE CXS ... nice job by the way brother !!!
What a shit design and an expensive to have to do each stinking wheel. We get one fixed 2 months later it's the next one! Don't buy American cuzz they suck!
i'm not have trouble but just locating the spark plugs I have a 2012 4 cyl with eAssist about 63,000 miles on it old lady driven I don't drive it much i'm retired I changed out spark plugs and ignition coils and almost every sensor on my Hyundai Tucson 2010 so I do my oil change on not buick though Thank you sir you helped alot
Great How-To video, mate. Dealer wants $300.00 to change the plugs, and like other people's comments, "they probably won't change the 2 rear plugs due to the extreme work needed to be done". I take on a Saturday morning and change them all myself. Oh, and your right. Do NOT go the cheap route when buying spark plugs for this 2012 Buick Lacrosse. You'll only need to change the plugs 3 times in its lifetime, as long as the plugs aren't cheap. I'm going on 257,000 on mine and this will be the 3rd time it's done on this car [and hopefully the last].
I have to do a front driver side one tommorrow.. I can see the " electro blah blah " magnet from behind the hub.. broken.. will be fun.. lol. Thank u for showing me your work..
Thank you! I have a Buick LaCrosse 2012... I took it to a shop for a tune up and somehow my engine is damaged!? My car shakes uncontrollably and my engine light will not turn off! They said they don’t know where they went wrong and blamed that it was a carbon issue but wouldn’t they have seen that initially??
It's probably because they didn't change the 2 rear plugs that are difficult to do. Whenever having spark plugs done on a vehicle in a garage or dealer, ask for the 'old' plugs they pull out back, so you see that all were changed.
I need to replace the 04 spark plug because it's misfiring. I will replace them all but before I do that I'd like to just confirm the 04 plug. Can you tell me which one that is? thank you.
I would forget how to put half that back together I will just pay less than 200$ to get it done so if something goes wrong they will fix it right 2nd time
Good video thank you God Bless
What’s the hose called at 5:53 where it was hard to twist
Taking apart half engine is insane for a spark plug tune up. Thank you buick 🤔🤔🤔🙄😬
Thanks man! I'll have the wife do the front 3!
Thank you for teach us. i have a lacrosse 2012.

Ka'lynn Mason First thing I would get done is change all the spark plugs if your car has more than 100,000 miles on it needs to be done
It's probably because they didn't change the 2 rear plugs that are difficult to do. Whenever having spark plugs done on a vehicle in a garage or dealer, ask for the 'old' plugs they pull out back, so you see that all were changed.
It would be even a more awesome video if you'd turn your camera the right way.
Kevin Thomas Yeah I agree Kevin. It was awkward trying to hold the camera the other way anyway next time
My buick is having the same issue on the same wheel. Thank you for showing how to replace it.
You're very welcome I'm glad I could help somebody
I need to replace the 04 spark plug because it's misfiring. I will replace them all but before I do that I'd like to just confirm the 04 plug. Can you tell me which one that is? thank you.
Heres how the cylinders are layed out. 135 246
'German engineering is better than this engineering'. That 3.6 is an Opel design.

Use your phone to record your steps, sort of like a second set of eyes, so you don't forget anything. EZ-PZ
