spark plug wires
Has anyone here ever replaced their entire spark plug wire system?
a year back the dealer replaced the number 6 cyl. wire because my car had a rough idle.
just wondering if replacing the entire system is difficult?
it's two wires per cyl. and a square box. i can do it on regular cars like hondas and nissans but the mbz ones look very elaborate. kinda scared that i will f**k sh*t up!

It's easy, two spark plug wires per cylinder, 12 total. Pretty hard to screw up. Should take an hour max. Make sure you use a wire puller like Lisle makes to remove and install. Why are you changing them?
