Where can I get good price on PT wheel part?

Changing plugs, uless they are buried deep in the engine compartment, are so easy to change I don't see why you wouldn't save yourself $115 to do it yourself. Price seems high since it shouldn't take that long to do. Same thing with the PS fluid. Very easily done.

HA! You've never looked into the engine compartment of a PT Cruiser, have you??? It really isn't hard, just a little more time consuming (compared to changing plugs on other cars). The throttle body sits behind the top of the valve cover, and 4 "fingers" go over the top of the valve cover, down in front of the engine. Needless to say, they completly cover the spark plugs.

You need to disconnect about 6 sensors/vacuum lines to the throttle body, a couple of bolts under it, and 4 bolts holding the top half of the exhaust manifold (the fingers) to the bottom half. THEN you can change your plugs normally.

The added cost is because of the extra labor. Many PT owners get platinum plugs, so you don't have to change them so often.

Hiya all,

what engine are we talking here?

I'm in the UK, the 2ltr petrol takes about 10 minutes to change the plugs, take the plastic cover off and there they are.
