Great video, just a couple notes for people who try to do this. 1. You do not need to conpletely remove the front brackets, loosen the studs just enough to move them out if the way 2. You do not need seperate the intakes, getting that back together will be the most frustrating part of this. Just pull it off of the air box is enough. 3. Buy a torque wrench, they are cheap. 4. There is a certain order that the intake manifold bolts need to be torqued, a quick google search will show you it. 5. If you are mossing a grommet, try to replace it.
#1 on this list is the main reason I wish I would have read the comments instead of going ahead and tackling this. That bottom stud on the left/front bracket (13MM) was an absolute nightmare to get back in place. Kudos to Satan's children (AKA Dodge engineers) for making the repair path so difficult on something that could have been so easy.
@@dgoddard it's worse on the Durango with the same engine, it's tuned so the belt is forward, so changing belts are stupid easy, getting this off not so much.
@@darrellyarborough3934 I think he meant you don't have to take off the intake. And you really don't. But it will get in the way of changing the back side bank (bank 1) if you don't. But it is doable.

I have been hoarding all the parts / gaskets / etc. to do the coil packs, plugs, throttle body and all the sensors all at the same time. This isn't a difficult process but it's a PITA to have to tear this all down to do the jobs one at a time. Totally agree.
This looks like two hours tops. Any tech charging over a grand for this is too damn expensive. That is not a logical amount of money, even at a modern labor rate, for the amount of time this takes.

No wonder a mechanic wanted over a grand to change plugs and replace one coil sure do miss the good old days lol

Very nice quality video!!!
My friend will be changing my coils and plugs on my 2016 V6 journey will be need to disconnect the battery first?
Anytime you’re undoing electrical connections it is a good idea to pull battery…as it is very easy to harm all the computer boards
I am getting ready to do my 2018 journey. thank you for making this video. What type of auto wrench is that? where can I purchase one?

What size do I need for my spark plug’s

Do u need to replace any gasket in the process
No
Do U need to know where to place a damn question mark?
@@David-xd9hb You can't read well enough to figure out that it was a question without punctuation?
*Should
I highly recommend replacing the thin gasket and thick gasket by the throttle body as well as the bottom gaskets on intake manifold
Thanks for this video !! Couldnt have dont it woth out you
WOTH?

Wait until you have to change the battery and need to drop the front drivers side wheel and get into the wheel well to do so…
just pray its only a spark plug issue...
@@michaeldrossos8836 🤣
@@michaeldrossos8836 I time it so I do the brakes / rotors / battery at the same time. Such a PITA.
My cylinder 2 misfire was a bad phaser messing up the camshaft and scarring it up the whole thing needed rebuilt and resurfacing/seating
