The Spark Plug replacement requires the removal of the air filter housings and the removal of the W12’s gorgeous inlet manifold.
Replacement of the inlet manifold gasket can also be achieved during the process.
Another channel called this service "labor intensive". I'd say it is straightforward, just remove a few bolts, a few hoses. I'd say spark plugs on Gm's 3800 engine are more difficult, because you have to remove the front engine mounts and bring the engine forward to access the rear spark plugs. Heck, even Ford Triton V8 spark plugs are more labor intensive. That's because the spark plugs on those engines are notorious for "fusing" to the block due to carbon build up. If you're in a hurry you'll easily snap the plug in 2 as you remove it. If this happens, you'll need a special kit to extract the other half that stayed in the engine.

VERY VERY HELPFUL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GREAT VIDEO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very informative video, thanks!
Thank you very much video is very helpful awesome work
Great video! I'm intrigued to know the outcome of that mystery red wire!
Someone had spliced into the signal supply from the other side of the engine to trick what the ecu saw and hide the defective part
Very informative mate thank you
Thanks 😊
Very informative 👏
Glad you liked it
Really did thank you 😊
wish you included bolt sizes for each of the bolts needed to be removed..
Great video and really not too bad but it's the other several 'engine out' jobs that scare me enough not to buy one although would love to scratch that itch! Thanks :-)
Thanks for your comment, awesome looking machines but when you buy a brand with a reputation like this and a price to match you expect everything to be made to a certain ‘special’ standard. For example let’s start with the key… which one would agree is an easy thing to Jazz up… NO, its the SAME tacky flip out key as any VAG (VW,AUDI SKODA to name but a few) with a tacky Bentley badge on it. All the harness connectors, switches and controls are also produced in the same manner and styling etc. The new Rolls Royce (7 series BMW) is also going down this route. We’ve come to expect a certain level of bespoke finishing with these brands and not just bouncy leather, some wood and an analogue clock on the dash of a Phaeton or 7 series. I sound moody but im not 😂
Agree 100%. Brands you mention play on brand heritage to fool the rich into paying huge sums! I mean the RR is a 7 series in a suit! Aston couldn’t even create a car without past donors like Ford, Volvo & now Mercedes! Cheers!
Excellent video. . . What about the Red wire?
If i recall the red wire was a signal being stolen from the other side of the engine bank 2 (B2) MAF sensor, this was presumably because the MAF on B1 was faulty and rather than replacing the unit, a butcher (not me) spliced into the B2 supply to trick the ECU into seeing the measured air mass from B2 and thus bypassing the faulty readings B1 would have been providing.
How much does a coil & spark plug job cost? USD (parts & labor)
200 dollars 😊
@@iLoveBoysandBerries 🤣 i wish
The big questions is - how much does all this cost?
For a comprehensive service with premium parts, including the plugs… £1050 inc VAT in 2022
Nicei video. v
Hi How much is labour cost on a job like this??
Somewhere around £125 at a guess
@theeccentrick you're taking the piss mate I think you forgetting some zeros
@@theeccentrick Bentley dealer here in Naples charges $ 280 an hour ,a regular oil service is almost $ 800 so I guess the job you did will be close to $ 2000
