Rear Ignition Coil Access

I want to know if the rear ignition coils (1, 3 and 5) on a 2003 Maxima can be accessed/removed without having to remove other parts. The front ones are easily accessed but not sure about the rear ones.

Nope, you have to take off a bunch of parts to get to the back coils. Nothing tough, just a little time consuming.

upper intake manifold has to be removed along with the braket holding it and all the vacuum and coolant lines.

This will show you how to get back there. I had a friend helping and we were in and out in less than an hour. Good luck!
