thats what I thought... but as far as spark plugs go... HOW in the hell do I change them without taking my car into TOYOTA ? I'm at 108,650 miles and I know they probably need changing

remove the coil packs to get the front 3, i think it's a 10mm bolt. The rears are a little more difficult, but they CAN be done without removing anything. You just gotta know how to move around in there :)

fixed.

If OP is not S/C it's easier to just remove the intake manifold.

spark plug sockets help a lot as well.

ur gonna need a 3" and a 6" socket wrench extension to do the back 3 spark plugs.

there's a tutorial written up on it i think.

i was able to do mine without removing the intake manifold

it took me less than an hour, altogether.

expect lots of cursing when removing the rear three plugs.
