Superb video. The guidance on tool sizes was a nice touch, enabling me to prep for plug change beforehand. Would you believe the dealership wanted $650 for changing the coil pack and installing new plugs, plus $100 shop time, plus $80 for 4 plugs? They started out claiming the coil pack and plugs were a "kit"! And the industry claims they're the victims of badmouthing by owners! $80 for FOUR PLUGS! hmmm......
There's more. The service rep , even though the repair was covered by a maintenance plan sold to us by the dealership and costing $3,000 over four years, told us we'd have to contact the insuring company and put in a claim ourselves! After losing the resulting jawboning battle, the dealership handled the claim and the coil pack is due in Monday. Further outrage- this is the second car we've bought from this dealership! Talk about gratitude! So far Buick is outshining the Barbary Pirates. Will keep everybody posted if further outrages develop.
My spark plug tubes have oil in them. My number one tube was the worst. I’m thinking spark plug tube seals but it doesn’t have any. Do you suppose oil is working it’s way up from the combustion chamber? Wouldn’t think it could blow up like that plus get past all those threads. Odd
Was wondering if you any idea about why my parking assist isnt working after replacing the battery? Check all over and back again for a manual button but nothing. Even scrolled through the menu and nothing.
I just changed my spark plugs on a 2017 encore one of the boots had to be replaced and the engine is puttering you know what this might be is it a bad connection with the coil
Great video to show exactly what I wanted to see. Thanks for this

Well you handled it like a professional.
I'm not surprised by the high end dealer pricing, they have a lot of overhead costs to pay for.
And I'm glad that the video helped

Looks like the engine on the Cruze, does this have that pcv issue?
