    Thanks for the excellent video. Was able to successfully replace all the plugs in my 2010 450h. Took about 5 hours working slowly and methodically. Wouldn't have done it without this video.

    Thanks Brian! Just did my wife's 2011 RX450h with 120k on it. Wow that was a PITA! I went ahead and did the coil packs too and cleaned the EGR valve and throttle body while I was in it. Took me all day but saved me a ton of money. Would have been quicker if I paid more attention to your video and left the pipe attached to the cooler and just removed the nuts at the EGR. Just a note to anyone that ran into my issue, I had to push the car into the garage when it started raining. Everything was disconnected/taken apart and I turned the car on to accessory (I didn't disconnect the battery's prior to doing the work) to put it in neutral (I should have used the manual override) and pushed it in the garage. When I was done and started it I had, PO102 Mass air, PO108 Manifold Press and PO113 Intake air temp. I cleared the codes and took it for a few mile ride, no more light/codes. I think it through the codes because of turning it on with everything disconnected. Runs perfect! Thanks again, amazing videos!

    Put a short length of masking tape along the top line of the wipers on the glass before you remove.

    Thanks for the great video! I’m 17 and did this job with your help for my mom, saving her $900!! Massive thanks!

    I watch a lot of auto repair videos (due to owning a BMW as my other car). This video is one of the BEST. Brian does such a great job of stepping through everything, including putting it all back together and warning of potential issues of trapping a hose when replacing the intake manifold. Yeah, it took me about 4 hours to do this, but I only had to do it once due to this great video. Thanks Brian!

    Thank you. I tackled my 2013 450h today expecting it would be like the 350 videos I have seen. When I saw my heat transfer pipe I though I would never be able to get the passenger side and middle plugs out. Thanks to your video I have replaced them all. I still need to put back a lot of stuff but the hardest part was dealing with the heat transfer pipe. Thanks for saving me!

    Thanks so much for a very complicated replacement sp. I would never do it by myself. You are such a good mechanic ❤. Now I know how hard it is.

  • @dccars1964

    Thanks for this great video! I just changed my spark plugs on my 2015 rx450h today. I kept referring back to your video while performing the job. Made the job less stressful knowing I could follow your steps. Thank you, thank you!!!

    Wow, what a convoluted pain in the ass to just change the spark plugs! lol Good job man, you made it look fast and easy.

    AMAZINGLY helpful. Was apprehensive, but worked like a charm. I had oil in one of the front plug holes so had to replace valve cover gasket and plug gaskets. The old plug gaskets were no fun to remove but worked out. Broke 2 valve cover bolts in the head in the process - removing those added a day to the job.

  • @froheg

    Thanks for this great video! It was so easy to follow your instructions throughout the job and I would never have done this job without it. It really helped me.

    I just finished this project, I did not use the scanner because I did not have one. When I got through it would not start, all the codes were lit along with check hybrid system. What can I do? Your video is the best on RUclips! YOU ROCK!

    Very informative about all the stuff under the hood. Although I will probably never do the spark plug replacement, I now know what's under all the covers and panels. Thanks, great video!

    That was a superb tutorial. And no cussing! You've got the patience of a saint. I think I can tackle this job myself, but no guarantees on the language control though. ;} Thanks for sharing!

    Great video. Took me about 6 hours but I took my time and cleaned and inspected everything thoroughly. I'd suggest to put the torque specs in the description along with an amazon link to a Fel-Pro or toyota brand gasket set.
