*Did our video help you? If so, consider buying us a beer: https://bit.ly/3feE6tJ*

In this video, we show you how to replace the spark plugs on the 2GR-FKS 3.5L V6 Engine. The specific vehicle we performed the job on is the 3rd Generation Toyota Highlander (2017-2019).

*The 2GR-FKS engine was also used in the following Toyota & Lexus Models/Years:*
Toyota Camry (2018–2022 models; including the track-tuned TRD trim)
Toyota Avalon (2019–2022 models)
Toyota Sienna (2017–2020 models)
Toyota Tacoma (2016–2023 models)
Toyota Alphard: 2018–2023 (not offered in the U.S.)
Lexus RX 350: 2015–2022
Lexus ES 350: 2018–2025
Lexus IS 350: 2018–2025
Lexus RC 350: 2018–2025
Lexus GS 350: 2015–2020
Lexus LS 350: 2017–2024
Lexus LM 350: 2020–2023

During the making of the video, I thought this video would translate to the earlier 2GR-FE engine or the 2GR-FKE hybrid engine, but there are differences that would change the methods to get this job done.
