2007 Entourage -- Change Spark Plugs?
Just wondering if any else out there has faced down the challenge of chainging the back (3) spark plugs on a 2007 Entourage minivan. I would imagine the 2007 Kia Sedona would be the same way.
Thanks for your help!

The original plugs are platinum, your not supposed to replace them until 100K. Also, your Entourage is a real pain to replace the back three plugs, I think you have to remove the intake, etc. I'd leave them alone unless you had a problem, not something to change just for fun.

I dropped in tonight to post in the Entourage forum and saw this. My wife just got rid of our faithful Santa Fe for no reason other than wanthing something newer....which sucks...and brings me to this.
The Santa Fe's back three plugs are the same way where you have to remove the intake and a few other items to get to them. For the Santa Fe I believe the labor time was something like 1.5 or 2 hours just for plugs. I did them myself in about 2 hours and was really no problem if you properly remove, label, and order the items as you remove them. After pulling the cover off the Entourage to change the filter about 10 minutes ago this motor will be no different.
But everyone is right. The book says Iridium at 100k. My only question for the plugs that I could not find in the book is TQ specs and the gap. Or maybe those plugs come pre-gapped? I know plugs come pregapped for my 4Runner. I wonder if these will be the same (not that I will have to do them for 4 to 5 years, but I like to be ready)

2007 Entourage Change Spark Plugs
I have a v6 2wd 05 Tucson with 31k on it. I just did a service pack today dealer said we had to do it to keep warranty fresh, bunch of hit. Anyways it cost 294.00 plus tax, which includes oil change, transmission change, flush and replace coolant, rotate tires, clean and adjust brakes, new air filter and a car wash and a bunch of inspections. My question is though, When should you replace the spark plugs on this vehicle? they said it is 118.00 extraThanks guys
