  1. Thank you. I have a 2009 VW Jetta 2.5. Which brand spark plugs is best? should I get? Bosch? E3?

  2. interesting how they link the spark plug socket on here but they neither mention/specify nor link to the extension. womp womp. thanks for virtually nothing

  3. Hello all I have a 2006 Jetta 2.5 that the back tires chirp/spin sometimes. I replaced all the plugs, coils and fuel filters. it seems like the RPMs are steady and there is a stall to the back tires, you can hear/tell when the hard shift is coming. Any advice would be great

  4. Great video man great angles showing what your doing too! Thank you for your help man saved me a couple hundred dollars

  5. 3:32 One trick worth doing at this point is tosit the plug on the hole/top of the thread and rotate it gently counter-clockwise with your fingers on the shaft of the ratchet extension until you feel the slight 'click' of the two thread engaging (the plug thread and the thread in the cylinder head). That way you will avoid any risk of cross-threading which would be a nighmare! Also, I was always taught to put a dab of lithium grease on the top of the plug before applying the connector (in this case the coil) as it gives a better electrical connection and keeps away any moisture.

  6. Very helpful and informative. Thanks !! Now out to change the spark plugs on my 2009 VW Rabbit with 2.5 engine

  7. So I recently replaced my spark plugs and it ran great but a week later I installed a AFE cold air intake and now it kind of acts like I have a misfire though there is no code so I'm inclined to think it doesn't like the gap because of the intake so do you recommend closing or opening the gaps and what gap should I try?

  8. Anybody hear the stream of debris falling from one side to the other inside the engine cover? The inside of that needs a serious blow.

  9. – We appreciate your Support and Purchases!

  10. VW did NOT make own spark plugs.
    Usually the Bosch is the supplier.
    Again this video did NOT want to say exactly what is the gap for NEW spark plugs. It is NOT harming to check and be sure….

  11. Is it a good idea to use anti-seize on the plug threads? Also, what about dielectric grease for the plug to coil pack connection? Thanks.

  12. Great video guys, I just subscribed and will search your other videos as well, but thought I'd ask here also. I had a check engine light advise me that one of my ignition coils was bad (specifically #3) is this something that I can just replace the faulty one or should I replace all five? It seems most places want to sell you a kit with 5 new plugs and ignition coils, but I just wanted to check and see if that's really necessary, I know it is for the plugs…thanks and keep up the great work!

  13. I didn't see anything about greasing the threads or putting any for the coil pack connector, I guess we don't need to?

  14. I don't remember you telling them about the gap of the spark plug I'm old school I used to rebuild my own motors and stuff back in the 70s and 80s but I assume you still have to Gap the spark plug not trying to be a smart or anything like that I just didn't know thank you for your YouTube channel it did help me a lot trying to figure out these newer model cars I'm 60 years old and they ain't built like they used to be

  15. I just purchased a 2005 Jetta and it is in need of spark plugs… I would not have even tried attempting it had I not watched this first. Thank you for the straightforward and detailed info! Great camera positioning as well made it easy to see what you were doing and in what process. Thanks!

  16. I have issues with my jetta when I drive to long. Especially on hot days where my car starts bucking when I accelerate and I have to pull off the road for a bit to grt it to stop lokg rnough to get home. Could this be a spark plug issue? Sorry I dont knoe anything about cars and ik worried it will crop out of me and leave me without a car.

  17. help! i made a noob mistake – somehow the 5/8 socket got stuck in the cylinder…(oh man). any tips on how i can get it out? thanks.

  18. Thanks so much for a wonderfully descriptive video. Just finish changing spark plugs on my 2009 VW Jetta that would never have been possible without this video.

  19. There is some misinformation in the description on what spark plugs are for what car. The two spark plug links that are listed will fit all 2.5 motors, but you didn’t list which motors required which spark plug. Yes, you could go by vin. Here is a list from the VW parts data base. If you have a half year car, please go by your VIN.

    Rabbit 2006-2009, 2005.5-2007 jetta use the NGK double platinum laser PZFR5Q-11 (6737) VW part number 101905600C. These are the only cars with a 2.5 that VW calls for NGK platinum plugs.

    2007.5 and 2015 jetta, 2006-2009 beetle, 2010-2014 golf, 2012-2015 Passat all use Bosch copper/nickel FR7HE02 vw part number 101905601F. VW calls for all these cars to use a Bosch copper/nickel plug.

    I like that you guys state that there are two different plugs for the 2.5. Most places don’t they give choices of different plugs and say they work on all 2.5s.

    Side note. Whenever I look on your website to find plugs for my 2006 Rabbit, there are never any listed.
