Mercedes-Benz GLE Spark Plug Replacement Malaysia — M276/M256
GLE M276 V6 uses 6 iridium plugs; M256 inline-6 also uses 6. Change interval 60,000 km. Replacing 6 plugs on an SUV engine involves more labour than a 4-cylinder — costs and process in Malaysia.
Iridium spark plugs. GLE 350 (4-cylinder M264): 4 plugs. GLE 450 (inline-6 M256): 6 plugs. GLE 580 / AMG 63 (V8): 8 plugs. V8 plug replacement is labour-intensive — rear bank access requires significant disassembly. Replace at 40,000 km for urban Malaysian driving.
Cost
- 4-cylinder (4 plugs): RM 300–450 supply + fit
- V6 inline-6 (6 plugs): RM 600–800 supply + fit
- V8 (8 plugs): RM 900–1,400 supply + fit (higher labour for rear bank access)
