How to change spark plugs on a 2017 Hyundai Elantra SE (AUTO LITE IRIDIUM XP SPARK PLUGS)
Mr talented Reid I am using some similar spark plugs in my 2017 Hyundai Elantra that I purchased from Advance Auto.
Type of spark plugs are Autolite IRIDIUM XP
Tools to remove plugs and coils are:
10mm socks and ratchet handle
5/8 socket and ratchet handle
Flat point screwdriver - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

I got a quote for $560 for this after they did a scan for my check engine light being on. Bought the plugs myself and your video saved me a lot of money in labor, nuff respect brother 🙏
Ok great thanks for stopping by
560 for spark plug? Hell no
Hahaha crazy quote 🤣 shop need rent money lol thanks for stopping by
Thanks to Awesome people like yourself posting this, i bought spark plugs for 30 to 40 bucks changed them myself ...... The Engine light disapeared after i'd say 100 kms of driving. Guessing the engine sensors finally did not have any more misfiring ! Ugh getting rid of that dreaded Engine Light by yourself is so satisfying .... Next time my girl chugs it will surely be the coils .
Ok awesome thanks for stopping by nice comment
Thanks for the well-presented video, sir! I just changed the plugs and coils on my own 2017 Elantra and man, what a difference it made!! I bought the Autolite plugs you suggested, and a set of well-reviewed coils from Amazon. $148 and an hour later, my Elantra SINGS with nary a miss or hiccup as before! And *bonus*, I’m now also seeing 2 mpg more! 😃
Wow excellent thanks for stopping by
Sir, I just finished changing my spark plugs, and I can’t thank u enough! May God bless I and your family!!
Ok great thanks for stopping by and the same for you
@@MrtalentedReid Thx
You're welcome
I am shocked that it only comes with 4 spark plugs. Now I know where to go to get my stuff and thank you for showing me how to do it to my own car.
Your welcome please like share comment And subscribe if u hasn't already
1 spark plug per cylinder
Great video!!! Same as most people here, was quoted $240 for parts & labor. I already have the tools , need to buy 4 spark plug at $8.00 each with tax total of $32.00 vs $240 ... total savings $202!!!!
Best to have your own tool kit with 5/8 socket and handle to remove plus and save your money thanks for your support and sorry for the late respond

Great work. Now I can do this by myself.
Ok great it is a good teaching video thanks for stopping by
Hey that vehicles shine good job❤
You might want to put anti cease on your sparkplug due to them being in an aluminum block engine. That makes removing them later on easier
Ok thanks for the idea 💡 and welcome to my TH-cam channel hope You have a blessed weekend
And also feel free to hit that notification bell 🔔 thank u
Pardon me having no knowledge about the tools, but how is the extension part called, the one that you used to extend the reach to the spark plug, and where can I get one, since my tool set doesn't have it
Extension size 1/4 and Socket 5/8 thanks for stopping by and sorry for the late respond
Thanks bro!
Your welcome
I know I can change my own plugs now
Good job sir spot on
Thank you for stopping by hope you have a blessed one
@@MrtalentedReid welcome I gotta do this same job tommorrow
Okay 👌
Question. I have a 2017 Hyundai Elantra myself I bought these exact spark plugs and a set of ignition coils too I had a on again off again check engine light reading a cylinder #3 misfire so I was told to replace the ignition coils since I was recommended to do it at 100k miles I’m currently at 86k miles so I figured I’d just get everything out the way now. So I just replaced the plugs and coils yesterday everything went smooth car started fine and drove fine but almost 30 minutes later my light came back on then off again and back on I rescanned and it said misfire cylinder #3 again and said detected #2 also. Took them off and inspected them all didn’t see any issues the gaps were proper as they should be and coils were firmly put so I put everything back and light was still reaching misfire so I erased the code and went for a drive and it did it once more then went off and hasn’t returned (yet) any advice on why this might be? Also noting My oil was a bit low no leak visible but the oil change was done approximately 3 weeks prior and was definitely weird on the oil level (about 1qt low) I topped it off and will be keeping an eye on it. A buddy of mine mentioned oil leaching into the plug bay but I didn’t see any oil on the plugs when removing.
OKAY in this case you may need to check the wires for slack connections corrosion. A bad ECM Can also cause it bad cylinder bad injectors. So check the compression on each cylinders if all of them on the same PSI Pressure
no anti-seize applied very brave
It best not to use because when use after few drive it form a sticky type material that get hard after a while then when ready to remove plus it seized up and broke off in engine head.( hot and cold reaction)
I think I can change my plugs myself. Thank you Mr Talented.
@@khadiahenry2921 your welcome
good video
Thank you
You got this
Great
I see you had NGKs in there before and switch to autolight how’s The performance and acceleration ?
It work great and it didn't affect the performance of the vehicle thanks for stopping by
@@MrtalentedReid still to today you have had no problems after installing the Autolight plugs?
Hey man thanks for posting the good video! I have the mechanical skills of a dead camel and you gave me the confidence to do this job and for that I thank you! My original problem was the check engine light came on and then I went to Advance Auto and I used their code reader. It was saying cylinder 3 misfire. So me and the guy determined that maybe it was the spark plug so I decided to change all three of them. I wanted to ask you was that the same problem you had? Also my check engine light is still on but the guy at Advance Auto said that maybe the check engine light will go off after a certain number of miles or a certain number of starts or I could come back and clear the code out and see if it comes back. Just looking for your opinion on that where anybody who is reading this. Thanks a lot!
Ok get it cleared and see and yes I was having the same issue
@@MrtalentedReid okay cool man I will let you know thanks!
Ok
@@MrtalentedReid okay so here is what happened I completed the job started the car and the check engine light still came on. However it seemed like it was fine then I went for a drive a half hour from my house turn the car off went back in the car check engine light still on. Woke up this morning go to drive to work check engine light still on. Then lunch time came and I went to go home and the check engine light is now off. Several times and several trips throughout the day car is running like a champ no check engine light is on. I 1000% think that this solve the issue! I was going to go to Advance Auto to get the code clear but I think the code just cleared itself like the guy at the shop said so big props!
Oh yeah by the way the error code was p0303. Cylinder 3 misfire. Which basically means change the spark plug. So I guess if you're reading this just by yourself for spark plugs change them all out at once it's worth the work in the effort. This guy looks like he did it in about 10 to 15 minutes. I gave myself about an hour because I'm not very good at fixing stuff but in the end it was super easy and now I'm super stoked! All the tools in the video the guy used were perfect for the job so get r done
Yes mi bredda
Cool
Did you measure the gap? Or use them directly from box?
Thanks for stopping by I use them straight from the box they already gapped from the factory
Thanks boss
Your welcome
Sir do you have a video on gaping a spark plug? My check engine light is still on, and my car is still shaking at idle! I believe this ( the gapping) maybe the issue!
Thx for any help!
No and do you clear all codes after
@@MrtalentedReid I’ll see can I get that done today! Thx
Ok
And check all the wires that go to the ignition Coils. Clean then spray little WD40 in the connector
@@MrtalentedReid Appreciate that! Thx u
Now if a faulty spark plug cause the check engine light to come on, if I replace it, will the light go away on its own?
Not for all vehicles most times you have to reset the check engine light with a scan tool or drive for few miles thank you for your support god bless you.
Hey bro, where did you find the gap measuring? I was looking the owners manual and couldn't find it.
New plugs normally come pre gapped and will work from from you order for that specific vehicle
1.1 is the spark plugs gap for hyundai elantra se
I believe you. I used the same brand as you did and mine didn’t come pre gapped for some reason. What’s even more strange is that a month after I changed the plugs, my car started shaking again and check engine light came on. I wonder if the spark plugs are defective?
Check the wires and the ignition Coil
Thanks Mr Reid. You the man 😎
Do you have to remove the wire connected to the coil or can I just remove the coil with the wire attached?
You have to remove the wire first so you don't break it
@@MrtalentedReid ok, thank you very much. Will the new plugs come gapped?
Yes they do nothing can gap them better than the factory computer so just take your time and put them in so u don't bend the tips
@@MrtalentedReid great thank you!
Your welcome
What did you use to clean the engine compartments. It’s so clean. Mine is filthy. 🤦🏽♀️
Thanks for stopping by I use air to blow away most of the dust on it and get some water in a bucket some rags and gry clean it after I use some wd40 spray on it then use a dry clean cloth to clean it
Thank you! I’m going to clean my car today!
Your welcome 🙏 🤗
The gel that you put is necessary?
Not really some come pregreased
Merci
Welcome
Hi, do we need to disconnect the battery before working on changing the spark plugs?
Hello thanks for stopping by. No you don't have to disconnect the battery from the ignition off the Circuits line to the ignition coils dead that send signals to ignite
Thanks again hope you have a blessed weekend
@@MrtalentedReid thank you for the advice :) please do a video on how to test, check for faulty spark plugs on elantra too. also how to choose which type of spark plugs to purchase for elantras .
@@victorecholima ok sure thank you so much for support
@@MrtalentedReid thank you for making this great video !!
Your welcome I will make you that video soon so make sure your notification on so u can get it soon as I post it thank u and have a blessed day
Mr talented Reid, say that I'm locked in a car trunk, how do I get out?
My new upcoming videos will based on that topic thanks for your comment will drop that videos soon
What about the torque limit on ur spark plugs?
11 to 18 lb-ft
If you have a torque wrench, the service manual specification for the spark plugs is 11 to 18 lb-ft of torque.
Am doing i for a very long time so I have ideas the amount of pressure I should give them
I seat here at the deal ship watching your video wondering why the hell it’s taking them four hours too change spark plugs I’m so confused
They wanted to charge you big sorry
That should take less than 10 minutes to change
No gap required?
No they already factory set
I was quoted $250 to have this done, I couldn’t bring myself to pay that much
Appreciate your support stay wise and save 👍🏽
You can go work a Berts Auto Part Mon 🤣👏🏽
Lol ft real but am in the us
