I'll probably get the tool anyway. Thanks alot for the offer though. I'm may hit you up though for some advise if I do get stuck though. Did you use the Kano areofoil to loosen them up?

I checked last week and the dealership here said about $450 to change all the plugs and the coil. My warranty covers half of the coil so that was $55 ( cost is $110). The plugs are $25 a piece, so that is rougly $200 in labor. Here the going rate is $100 bucks an hour. So I would only have $100 dollars more in it letting them do it. And no aggravation. Think I will leave it to them.

Only do your coils if you have to.if their not worn and there still good,save yourselfe the money bro.and get all that in writeing from them,also ask how much if the spark brakes.how much will it go up.as usa law,they have to provide you with it in writeing,but ya gotta ask,that way their held to their word and you can come back and say well you quoted me this in writeing and this is what i want it at.that way the stealershio wont try and take you for extra money,also remember car stealerships are hurting for money big time and are always looking for an extra buck.good luck bro
