How to Replace Spark Plugs on 08 Altima Coupe 3.5

[vflores]

I KNOW it may be too soon (don't get upset)... but, has anyone replaced their spark plugs on a 2008 Altima coupe 3.5, and can provide detailed instructions? There is no hands on details/video on this subject and the service repair manual doesn't provide step by step details. Also, I thought I heard there is a gasket(s) that would need to be replaced?! I want to learn how to do this, if I am guessing right, this is a money maker for Nissan, I don't want to give them my cash for something I CAN do.

Thanks in advance!

you can do it yourself but the back 3 will be a pain in the arse... i think... the headers are in the way... not sure last time i looked under the engine cover was when i was doing my grounding kit.

the front three are right there.... but the other will be hard.

i would just take it to a shop you trust, should not really cost much

good luck

you have to take off the intake manifold to get to the back 3 and replace the gasket on that
