My #4 plug has gone bad at 76,000 and I’m going to attempt to swap in a new one this weekend. I thought it would be relatively easy since it is furthest forward on the drivers side but a fair amount of stuff has to come off to get to it. Keeping fingers crossed it comes out fairly easily.
@Chris3058 did you replace yours or did you go to the dealer? If the dealer was it under warranty or did you have to pay big $’s for the fix?

Had the dealer replace my #4 plug at approximately 65,000 miles. Next one I’ll probably do myself. The plug job was covered under warranty.

Had to have an injector replaced on a '05 Duramax once, the job was 100% not something you can do on your own and you never just replace one as it's so intrusive so you replace all on that bank with the bad injector. Needless to say, the cost was around $4k, I've got warranty for 3 yrs so I'll let the dealer do the fixing.
