Just ordered 4 spark plugs, clearly i am not a mechanic 🤣 Thnx for this video!

A good Vid best ive seen for this job.

Own the same car, got it back from a service today. Was shocked by the costs of it. Next time I’ll do it myself, thanks to this vid. Btw, they billed me for 4 plugs. So I will visit them 1 last time and get a little money back. 😏

Thanks for video

Excelente demostración de trabajo, 👏👏👏👏👏 Ayuda a animarse,con herramientas adecuadas ,y no tener que ser víctima de mecánicos inexcrupulosos.🇦🇷🙏

Exacto, uno mismo es más cuidadoso que muchos apretatornillos que rompen todo lo que tocan y en vez de arreglar , estropean , no digo que alguno sea cuidadoso y honesto, pero hay muchos que no van sino a ver si pueden sacar tajada, eso lo haces tú mismo con menos dinero que el que te cobran ellos y que conste que no hablo por la mayoría sino por algunos chapuzas.

idk why but i just did spark plugs replacement on my engine, 1.6 MPI. its just satisfying to watch idk why...

Am i correct that you put in the plugs, tighten them loosley. then the video cuts. and you tighten them strongly. Or are you doing something else?

Does anyone know if you can use the sparkplugs from the Up TSI/GTI? Because these have the iridium sparkplugs but something is 1mm shorter than for the MPI engines.

Nice video. Can i know are the set of tools required to replace spark ? Ihave same model in Skoda

HI What is the sparkplug gap measurement ? ( 2017 Vw up 1ltr petrol) Can`t seem to find it noted anywhere. Cheers

I have seen 2 videos today, where people just remove the first hose to the left of the airfilter box with ease lol. I can not even move it a mm, even with a tool. Its like its glued to the box.

That looks easy af! doing mine next week

Just finished doing them. Mines the turbo model so it was a bit more difficult, boost pipe had to come off to get to the first spark plug. Thanks for the video man

What size engine is that

Greetings from India! I have a VW Polo which has the same CHYB engine. I assume it runs on the same plugs mentioned here. That said I have been wanting to try some iridium ones. Could you please recommend/suggest the iridium replacement for NGK ZKER6A-10EG?

I do not recommend replacing the plugs with Iridium ones. VW use the specified plugs for good reason

On the box it says to turn them 1/2-2/3 of a turn after they are seated. You can also feel the washer crushing

Why is this going so easy, i have a really hard time removing the Coils, cant get them out, Any tips ?

The coils can get stuck on the spark plugs. You just have to pull harder until they pop off
