I'm the one that didn't know.
I've never done a spark plug change before.

Just yanken N1rve's chain. He also asked then ..... OHHHHH wait a second he was asking you why on the why!!!!
Now I see it.
In everybody's defense it looks like he was asking the same thing.

I had an in depth look under the car. I really can't see this being done without lifting the motor. There literally is an inch of clearance between the coilpacks and the frame rail.

I'm still quite skeptical plugs can be changed out easily.

I did it without lifting the engine one mm. U just have to remove the di ECU and the mount and have small hands. Took about 2hrs total

Special swivel sockets and extensions make changing the spark plugs on our cars "easy"... Harder than a Honda but still really not that difficult.

Guess it's time to teach my grandson how to change plugs.
