Changing plugs on a Charger

[Stalker]

Anything I should know about changing plugs on a 2013 Charger R/T? Looks simple enough, but looks can be deceiving. I watched this video and it still looks easy enough, but for someone who doesn't really wrench on a car anymore I wanted to be sure of anything I should know before I go tearing my car apart. Dealership wants $400 to do it and I figured that was ridiculous.

That is high priced, but it is the dealer... Very easy to DIY.

Dline has probably done it a bunch. PM him.

Why do you need to change plugs on a 3-4 year old vehicle? Plug change interval on most newer cars are 100k miles. (Unless Chryslers are different...)

That was my next question. Dealer recommended service for the plugs is 60,000 (or so my dealer said yesterday). that's what made me look into what it took to change them.

Cause they aren't platinum 100,000 mile plugs

 

[Stalker]

So what plugs would you recommend I get? Normally I go with Bosch, but again, haven't done anything in a long time since I normally change vehicles every 2 years.

I have still been doing the copper tops, since 16 spark plugs, was out of my budget, and hard to find

Wonder why they didn't use platinum. There's tons of these engines out there with 300K miles now.

I think like your car, and the hellcats are ngk's...probably the penny pinchers had something to do with it

 

[Stalker]

Should this do then?

Yea, I don't see the point in paying that price. I'm not racing mine, it's a daily driver. I'll stick with Iridium.
