Found if you install the zip ties and gently wriggle them as you are slowly pulling them out, you will over come the suction the rubber seal causes and you don't break the zip ties. I followed your tip and snapped the first zip tie but them used the wriggle method and got even the hard one out without breaking the zip tie. Thanks for your insight and method. Just done the full service, thanks to you cheers.

@gseamans 4 года назад

Thanks for very informative video. I only had small cable ties handy and broke half a dozen. Before I gave up all together I tried 1 last time, this time wiggled the plugs out rather than direct pull and they all came out easily without breaking any more ties! Thanks again

@CycloneCyd 4 года назад

YES, of course❗ Why didn't I think of that❓ The only cautionary note I would add though for others benefit is to be careful not to waggle them too hard. We don't want to break the ceramic on the plugs. If the ceramic breaks there'll be shards of ceramic in the plug hole which might subsequently get into the cyclinders and potentially do damage.

Awesome. If you're just starting out servicing your own car(s), make sure to equip yourself with a decent filter removal tool. This is the same one you see me using in my video for 1.2TSi oil change, amzn.to/2KBZSCC, and is excellent quality. It will last you a lifetime. It needs a 3/8 drive though. If you have a 1/2 inch socket set, this is very similar and looks just as robust amzn.to/38F1WYg 1.2Tsi oil change ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tWT2tG13hIc.html - do let us know how you get on.

DO NOT USE copper grease on spark plugs thread nor anywhere near brakes. The silver coating you see on plug threads these days is specifically designed to ease the removal even after many 10s of 000s of miles.

@CycloneCyd 3 года назад

@@Prologui2000 I think this is why VW decided to fit iridium plugs from new - the first owner of the car is unlikely to ever need to change the plugs, it'll probably fall on the second or third owner. Keeps the "cost of ownership" down for the new buyer - which is a competitive metric for fleets especially.

Hi Cyd I loved that audio joke at the end. One thing I was looking for, you didn't cover... On my car (Fabia 1.2 TSI in Australia) there is all sorts of muck around the spark plugs - looks like bits of grass, moth wings, possibly mouse poo - how do you clean dirt and muck away before removing the plugs? I don't want any any of it to fall in to the combustion chamber.

@CycloneCyd 3 года назад

Ha ha, that's a Jaguar F Pace SVR starting from cold. I recorded it myself when I got a chance to 'assess' one for seat comfort. Awesome, man. Brutal performance and physics-defying handling❗ Try smearing the end of a lolly stick with petroleum jelly and use that to 'pick up' as much debris as poss. Do let us know how you get on

@Bajlon Год назад

Thanks for the instructions! I just learned that my car has a turbo. 😅 Another thing: Do you know if this engine has a cam belt or chain? If it's a belt, do you know the change interval?

Im ordering the ngk leads, they have the plastic covers on it leads itself, it was also a recall back in the time.

@banquo46 Год назад

Tried your method but all the 5mm cable ties all snapped, 7.5mm ties just too large and kept slipping. Bought a spark plug boot plier off amazon for around £20 inc postage and although not perfect did the job with a lot of wiggling, the use of a flat headed screwdriver where possible and wd40 spray. At 60kmiles I believe this was the first change (and will be the last!) which made the removal difficult. I think some of the rubber was perishing which didn't help. Without your video though I would not have attempted it, Thank you.

Sono di nuovo qua per un importante aggiornamento, oltre a non usare il WD-40, è necessario sgrassare la superficie degli elettrodi con uno spray x contatti elettrici o con alcool propilico, sia la punta delle candele (polo positivo superiore) sia l'elettrodo del cavo altrimenti la macchina potrebbe, andare in protezione con accensione spia EPC e altre. Questo errore è molto difficile da individuare e induce molti professionisti a optare per cambi di elementi molto costosi. English: I'm here again, important notice, as I said do not use WD-40 but use special electric contact cleaner or alcohol isopropylic (cold engine), you will save money and trouble so you don't go into troubles about error on dashboard on EPC signal lit and other error signals lighting on, or ECU going in protection mode. This inconvenient is very hard to find even by professional operators.

Refer to the vehicle manual for the spark plug replacement interval. It is generally recommended to change after 40-60 thousand kilometers or after four engine oil changes. I received the original candle after 30,000 km / 10 years of vehicle age. So the time of the exchange also plays a role.
