Changing the spark plugs on a Chrysler Voyager V6
Posted by Steve, under CarsThe rear spark plugs on a Chrysler Voyager V6 (2000) at first seem very difficult to change. I have heard of various methods, from gaining access from underneath the car, to lifting the inlet manifold an inch or two.
I decided to take the easiest approach, which might not be the quickest if you have access to a vehicle lift, but is relatively straight forward.
As well as a new set of spark plugs and ignition leads you may need a new inlet manifold gasket as it could break when you remove the manifold
Below is a step by step photo guide on how to replace the spark plugs, which you might find helpful if tackling the job yourself.

Beats a Haynes Manual
hi very helpful plugs are done water pump has gone now i have found one on an american website (rockauto) wi this fit uk version i would be grateful if you could help
Hi Gary. I usually buy car spares (brakes parts and filters etc.) for my Voyager from Bristol Motor Parts (01179553311). But on checking with them today, they tell me Chrysler Voyager water pumps are only available through the main dealer. I haven’t checked the price with Dick Lovett, but I bet it will be advisable to be sitting down when they tell you! I haven’t tried purchasing any spares from the U.S
Well, my garage got the water pump from normal parts shop.
