I am from london uk I think it was a good film and well done for showing anothr way to work on this matter . I am happy knowing i can work both ways on theis vehicle now . Thanks for your time on this video we meed to encourage short hacks and encourage new ways to do things ... Well done ✅
Oem iridium plugs are good for minimum 100k miles but my ev history says 40% so ic engine only ran 60% so plugs are good for at least 150-160k. If actual miss fire occurs u will get check light, also just remove the plastic cover and wipers for easy access. I did mine at 160k and plugs were still clean maybe because I used Lucas fuel additive regularly.
This video has so much bad information in the first few seconds. If you are serious about doing your own work, it is nothing like this. This generation of Prius has a removable section that is extremely simple to do and gives you full access. Instead of bending (and breaking) potentially hundred dollars of broken panels and pieces, find somebody that teaches the job correctly.
This whole video made me angry because that black plastic piece above the plugs is removable and it’s extremely easy and simple to remove…. Still thank you for the good video… I guess. But remove that plastic flap next time for working room.
In some versions it splits near yhe middle, where coils end. Slide out sideways rubber seal, it is on multiple plastic hooks and have a look. Of course, not a case in mine.@@marcustorres848
With 139,000 miles on it, did you have a mpg lose, and after replacing the plugs, did you gain you mpg lose back, mine has 125,000 on the original plugs but it has dropped about 10 mpg, I’m fixing to change the plugs.
As well as a specific spark plug an engine calls for, the plug itself week have a 'gap' requirement. He did say that the plugs from Denso come preset. Maybe they all do these days. In my time we use to have to set it ourselves with a gap measure gauge.
Once you remove the wipers, the plastic panel just is held by just two push pins and it’s end caps. Job is much easier with the panel removed.
Do you have a video on pulling the windsheild arms off and lifting the panel? I am not comfortable going into this without that info.

Interesting. I didn't know you can check percentage of time car ran in EV. Can you share how to do that?
@@Ash-cy7yw it’s one of the main menu screen shows life time ev % . At least on my 2018
Wow this really worked, wonder if this would work on my 2014 Prius V, will have to see how flexible that overhang is..
Hi. Is it work for you?
Those plugs look fine. This is what i was hoping to see :) i will let the og plug ride

Not all versions have the section over the spark plugs removable. Mine is in one piece.

how do you remove it???

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Super easy to remove, and it makes the whole process easier overall.
I lost that piece at the beginning fuse looking resistor thing. Anyway you can send a link for the actual piece name.

@10:15 What do you mean by "Gap" Good video!

I just couldn't fish out the sparkplugs 😢
Probably best to use antiseize on the threads. Some people use dielectric paste on the boots.
I do not think my 2017 would flex enough to get by it.
Mucho tiempo para enseñar una pieza, Sacar bujías mal, Introducir bujías mal,
In professional way I hop u don’t mind
I could do it in Toyota prius but I wouldn't want to try it in Volvo xc90 or bmw 7 series top models!
