►BMW engines built in the last twenty years have become very particular about their spark plug and ignition coil replacements. The rigors of a high-compression engine with turbocharging and direct fuel injection, like those in the N63 and S63 V8s, have considerably reduced the effective life of standard ignition components. The plugs and coils are in charge of igniting the fuel and air mixture inside the cylinder. If either the coil or plug isn't working as intended, the engine will lose power, run roughly, and throw a check engine code. Replacing the spark plugs and ignition coils on time is the best possible way to prevent that from happening.
How often you'll need to change your spark plugs and coils is up to your application. BMW's modern turbocharged power plants have a relatively short ignition service interval of about 37,000-miles. Modified examples should reduce the interval even further to about 20-30,000-miles. Modified examples should also consider using a one-step colder spark plug for better performance. The colder plugs will help reduce pre-ignition, also known as detonation or pinging.
Follow along as Mike Hidalgo, FCP Euro's Professional DIY'er takes you through a spark plug and ignition coil replacement on this N63-equipped BMW 5-Series.

To anyone watching I think it was an error on his end which he’s human and it happens. But the torque spec IS NOT 23ft-lbs!!! You’ll break the plug it’s 23 NM!! Which is equivalent to 16.5-17ft lbs. Other than that good wrenching bro and great video!

@ernestrodriguez4721 Год назад

So I should torque to 16lbs?

@ilyass2206 Год назад

@ernestrodriguez4721 yes 16.5 or 17ft

@jscottgriffiths 9 месяцев назад

Good catch. If you look at his digital readout shows it’s calibrated to NM, but the text on the screen shows FtLbs. Thanks for clarifying.

@joshhuoabski3278 9 месяцев назад

Before he puts the first coil pack in, he does correctly say 23Nm. I'm shocked there hasn't been an edit. At least 1 guy broke his plug in the comments.

@unitybrand7032 9 месяцев назад

True he corrected himself a few seconds after.

Aren't Eldor coils recommended due to unreliability of the Bosch? I see you have the newer crankcase vent pipes. Those should be pointed out to your viewers.

Awesome explanation of how to do this. My 2016 550 is in the shop now for a water pump replacement but they said I also need new plugs. Let’s see what BS price they give me. If it’s ridiculous at least I know I can change them myself. Thx!

@MrAnwar95 2 года назад

I recently bought a 535i 2014 F10 and few people that I have talked to about regarding replacing the spark plugs also suggested replacing the ignition coils at the same time stating that the new spark plugs might overwork the old ignition coils. How true is that? And anyway is there a service interval on the ignition coils?

@mikimiki195 2 года назад

Spark plugs yes Ignition coils don’t waste your money Ignition coils work or don’t

@Dat550go 7 месяцев назад

The beauty cover was removed to reduce engine temperature. Remove the mat on the hood also and you'll see 5°- 21° drop.

@yuenatong2624 7 месяцев назад

I had a misfire on cylinders 4 and 5, I followed the steps to the letter and replaced all the spark plugs, then cylinders 2,3,4,5,6 had a misfire. Do you know what the problem is and do I need to replace all the coils, at least 3 of them are relatively new.

@fcpeuro 7 месяцев назад

Hi there, typically coils all need to be replaced at the same time, if one fails, then inevitably the rest are going to follow suit; it is only a matter or time. More than likely disturbing the coils was enough to cause misfires.

@MrPcbiggs Год назад

No mention of using the grease pictured at the front end of the video. Would be nice to know if grease is recommended, and if so, how much?

@fcpeuro Год назад

Hi Paul, while included in the kit, Mike did not use any grease on this DIY. These coils do not play nicely with it, especially if you overdo it. However, we recommend you watch our video on the coil-on plug setups, where we cover when and how to use the dielectric grease! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UhGRvZmpLqo.html

@MrPcbiggs Год назад

@@fcpeuro I bought plugs and coils from you guys and did not use the grease when installing. My BMW 550i is now running very well! Thanks for the videos that do a VERY good job of explaining the process.
