3.3TT Spark plug replacement, help a novice out

[blnewt]

What did the dealer charge you for the plugs plus labor? I found the NGK Ruthenium HX Ruthenium Spark Plug 95125 on Autozone, 6 of them for $102. Was gonna find a non-dealer shop to install them.

Do you have the newer 1pc coil pack boots?
The Ruthenium plug tops don't seem to work with the older 3 pc. boots from what I've read over here.

Man, that was a while ago. Don't recall the amount, only the memory of "that was an expensive spark plugs change job." So, even if I did remember, the price would be outdated. I do remember that the dealership was going to charge me $35 per plug. When I objected they cut the price down to $20 each. Still too much I suppose, but they have been working flawlessly since, so, maybe you get what you pay for applies here.

Might have to pull one of your boots out, simple on the drivers side to access the coil pack bolts. The newer one is on the left, if you have that the Rutheniums should work fine, if not you may have issues (but might be fine too, but ??? )
