Thank you
Thank you very much, watched this twice and it helped tremendously in a successful tune up of my 2009 Enclave, 253,000 and still rocking!
I’m glad this helped you out! Got more Buick how videos here: th-cam.com/play/PLtW_OUnHgC4g9BjbRf5Y73GHuS5W9vDND.html
I drive a 2011 and this video is for a 2012 so removing the intake is unnecessary, I have watched the entire library before coming here too.
Best video out there. Didn’t waste a bunch of time showing how to unscrew all the bolts got to the point and allowed me to start mine my self except my upper intake is not plastic it’s cast aluminum I’m guessing
Man I appreciate that, I tried to make it straight to the point as possible with tips to make things easier. Thanks for watching.
@@MagnusPrimeE1 I’m in louisville ky and nowhere has ACDelco so I’m going to have to use Duralast. Then I’m selling it. It’s my moms car and has 60,830 miles on it. Rackin pinion and power steering went out already and it was 10miles over 60,000 and gm wouldn’t help at all. I don’t think I’ll ever buy or recommend anyone a GM suv
You did a wonderful job explaining the procedure. Thank you for taking the time to make and post the video.
Glad it was helpful!
Great work here brother. Thanks for taking the time to do auch a great video. Keep up the good work
Thank you, and I appreciate you watching.
Excellent tutorial, super helpful!!!!
Thanks for the info.
Quick and fun tutorial... Thanks again This is great!
Thanks for watching!🙏
Your video helped me knock this out. Thanks for the help man!!
Don't forget to gap your plugs before installation and NEVER run Autolite plugs in anything especially in a GM product. The plugs should have been R&R with AC Delco. Other than that great advice and happy to see others using diode electric grease and anti-seize.
Thanks for posting this very well done video, it made the job easy.
Great video, bro! I thought you presented it very thoroughly! 👍
Good work
Thanks for the advice.
Nice job! I’m looking forward to doing this same routine this week! Thanks
Hey thanks. Save yourself hundreds of dollars in labor by doing it yourself! You should knock this job out in about an hour and 30 minutes or less. Good luck.
If you do don't take anything off just get some extensions to reach the back ones you'll thank me later ...ps wear long sleeves and gloves tho cuz insulation on top itches alot Lol
Thanks for the step by step!!
No problem and thanks for watching!!
Excellent video, appreciate you!!!, going to do this on my enclave!
Thank you!! Saved some money!!!
Thanks for watching, I'm glad I could help! That is the whole reason I do these videos.
Very nice video, so helpful, thank you.
Nice job on the video!
Thank you I appreciate it and thanks for watching!
Me following along: "gotta grab this.... And put it to the side also." Haha thanks for the video!!!
Lol hope it helped.
Good video
Great video very informative. Now with that being said the side show/clips were distracting just saying. Keep up the good videos.
Thank You.
Thank you!
Your welcome.
Well done. I’m jealous of the price you got on the coil packs, I paid $97 each for ac/delcos. This helped me a lot.
Lol I caught my parts guy at just the right time to get that price. I’m glad this video helped you out, I’m always up to something 😁
I guess im asking the wrong place but does anyone know a trick to get back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot my password. I would love any assistance you can offer me.
@Dustin Dario Instablaster :)
@Bronson Vance thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Bronson Vance It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my account !
I have a 2017 Buick enclave and just changed the spark plugs. My nephew did it in 45 minutes. You do not have to remove intake. You can easily reach the 3 back plugs . I watched him change them . He took his time and it only took 45 minutes.
I have to remove the intake because I have 23 inch arms. It’s the only way I can do this service for people, I’ve done 32 of these repairs so far, takes me about 30 - 40 mins.
Have you replace your rear pcv calve or orifise on your enclave?
2009 you have to remove the intake , you cannot get the plugs or coils out with the intake on .
"Ok uh TH-cam-uh, I have a dey intake a removed" that one Russian guy lmao
🤣🤣
Could you add a list of tools and parts needed. If I'm doing the spark plugs do I have to change the other part or can I just do the spark plugs? How do I know when it's torqued enough?
Thank you
You welcome, and thank you for watching.
Thanks for the video. Starting on my gfs now. Parts store said to unhook the negative on the battery, but I can't find it
The battery is located in the floor behind the passenger seat, lift the floor mats and you should see the cover to access it.
You don't have to take anything off you can reach the back ones with an extension o do it all the time easy work you just worked hard
It’s really not hard work, but to each his own.
@@MagnusPrimeE1 it is if you take everything off like he did Lol
If you don't have to take anything off, how do you get cylinder 6 out? I'm curious. As far as i can see, as im looking at one right now with the aluminum intake, There's zero chance doing all 6 without removing the intake, just as he did.
Thank u love ❤️
You welcome honey.
Thank you sir. This a great video you cover everything. Thank you señor
@@antoniosanchez-zs7vo Thank you, and I hope this video was helpful.
Good presentation. Note, that you find want to put antiseize on the threads. They are plated from factory and putting that on there will throw off the torque, running the risk of overtightening or not putting them in tight enough. Otherwise, again, good presentation. Thanks!
Thanks for watching, appreciate the insight. As far antiseize goes that is a must and as far tightening, that’s where your common sense has to come in to play. I’m 42 I built my first engine when I was 13, and have serviced and repaired more cars than I can remember.
Better if there wasn't all the interrupting vid clips
Did you put on new intake gaskets? If not, why not?
Great Vid...removed all the ?''s regarding this Maintenance.
I am still wondering is it possible to change from an Aluminum Intake Manifold which was made for 2009 to 2011 and swap it to a 2012-to-2022-year Plastic Intake Manifold. Plastic Intake Manifold have so much more room to work around spark plugs on this type of engine alone. Stupid Aluminum Intake Manifold engineering in the First Gen years. I have the same engine cover which helps.
To add: I saw the difference is that Mid 2012 have MAP Sensor on top of the plastic intake and the 2009 to 2011 does not have MAP sensor on top of the Aluminum Intake Manifold, I am stuck with what I have and will make of what I have work for me.
I had a mechanic tell me that i did not have to remove the intake and that its just a tight fit for the back 3 coil packs but that it can be done. Does that sound right? Also, you mentioned checking the spark plug gap to 43 thousandths but didnt see you check that. What do you need to do that?
I had already gapped them. It can be done with it on, but it’s really a pain in the ass to do, I can’t do it that way because I have 22 inch arms lol. Short cuts just aren’t worth it especially with a job like this, It’s just easier to remove the intake. I’ve done so many now, it only takes me about 40 mins, start to finish.
i wondered why the 'f' I couldnt find the dagone plugs. now I know
Great presentation...how many miles did your buick have on it?
Thank you, 165,000 when this was filmed.
Yaaaaaaayuhhhhh!!
I have watched so many videos on 2011 Chevy Traverse Spark Plug change since I bought my vehicle in 2020. Once you pop up the engine cover and I notice you are working on a 2012 Year model or later. In 2009 to 2011 the intake manifold which is made of Aluminum has to be removed from the engine because it does cover the front three spark plug ignition coil. From 2012 to 2022 the intake manifold DOES NOT cover any ignition coil at all. So, removing the intake manifold from the engine of 2012 and later is very unnecessary, unless people own 2009 to 2011, we have no choice at all. I have no choice to remove mine, got to suck it up and replace my spark plug driving from 151,000 which I bought mine from to 173,000 who knows? The Power Steering fluid also use transmission fluid, save a lot of money there too.
Do I have to by another intake gasket
Look at your gasket and see if it is cracked. its made of a thick ABS type plastic. If its not cracked , you are good to go.
You don’t have to remove the intake manifold you have room to remove the back plugs easily
I wanna know where you got Delco coil packs for $35 a piece. I paid $42 for Bosch. Doing this on my Enclave tonight
I got lucky, had a local parts vendor that got a over shipment of these by mistake at the time. Hope everything goes well for you. And thanks for watching 🙏
You do not have to remove intake, did my 2012 in an hour with intake in place and could reach everyrthing fine.
Same here. I was able to reach around both sides easily.
Me too. I didn't remove the intake. Used magnet to remove the old plugs.
Try that on a 2009 , you have to remove the intake .
Did this job and put everything new even a gasket and it start misfire,
I erased the codes and drive it around and it was fine and then it start misfire again
Sounds like you got a bad coil or plug new out the box, believe me it happens a lot. You need to unplug each coil one at a time to narrow down which one is bad. As you do this pay attention to see if the misfire gets worse or stays the same. Standing in front of the vehicle the cylinders are like this: front 3 are- 2,4,6 Rear3 are- 1,3,5.
Can I use copper anti sieze?
I’ve used both types of anti seize over a course of 20 years doing jobs like this and haven’t had any issues. Copper just has higher temp. tolerance that aluminum anti seize
What's the firing diagram from the 2012 Buick enclave
Standing in front of the vehicle, the front 3 cylinders are 2,4,6 and rear are 1,3,5
@@MagnusPrimeE1 thank you sir
@@lomi4267 Your welcome and thank you for watching.
What’s is part number of those spark plugs ? I Appreciate it !!
Again if is okay can I have the spark plug part number ? Running with the same issue here ?
Yes they are AUTOLITE Platinum part number: AP5263
@@MagnusPrimeE1 right on thanks man about the coil packs wires ?
Just to verify the coil packs # is OEM Part Number: 0221604112
Anyhow Appreciate it this video
@@LorenzO-305 The DELPHI part number is GN10494 and the ACDELCO part number is D515C, they both are OE replacements.
Watches video, lets out HUGE exhale
My last two V6's 2005 Malibu 3.5 and Buick 3800v3 back 3 plugs only feel zero visual, this Enclave looks like gravy
Dump the side voices as they detract from your presentation. They were childish and obnoxious and detracted from an otherwise good presentation.
How does the side voices distract from the presentation? He clearly explains everything without any distractions during the important shit. I followed along perfectly fine. You just felt like talking shit.
@@bishop5166 Couldn’t have said it better myself, thanks Bishop.
I agree , cut that crap, reminds me in honors classes the idiots sitting in the back. we not playing we trying to learn here
Yes. The video could do without the side clips. Plus they are louder than your audio.
Yeah, no shit! I clicked on this video to learn how to change my spark plugs but all this side voice bulshit is fucking distracting as hell. I thought this video was supposed to be for adults? What a fucking waste!
Lambda Lambda Lambda
"Coil pack" means a single central spark generating module with 4/6/8 posts that connects individual wires to each plug chamber
These are six "individual coils modules"
The professional term is "pencil" coils
No need to replace the coil packs until they go out.
They did, 3 in fact. Same coil packs since 2012.
Might as well replace them since you got everything off lol
I replaced all 6 at 202k miles when I bought my 08. I used delphi. They were $30/ea. Now they're $75/ea. It was Routine maintenance. Today, almost 6 years & 87k miles later, #4 misifire replaced coil and all plugs. Rear banks plugs are definitely a p.i.t.a. like most transverse engines today.
@@jeffalan8637how do you check which one is bad
I have a genesis scan tool. Can view live status of cylinder misfires. Process of elimination, swap coils around from other cylinders.( If you didn't have a known good extra on hand.) Eliminates fuel injector being suspect or something else.
Loose the pop ups
Auto light plugs 🤦🏻
Lol we used them in Cup cars, believe me Autolite’s are fine. Who do you think makes Motorcraft plugs.
Go with AC Delco
your editing sucks... but the information is good
Sorry about the editing, I could use some tips, what studio do you work for, Disney, Amazon, Netflix, Apple??????
DONT EVER USE AUTOLITE ANYTHING!! ITS ALL JUNK!! USE AC DELCO PLUGS!!
