Thank you for the nice video, but I have a few comments.. I hope people realize that the next time the plugs are pulled (to examine them or for other troubleshooting) some anti-seize may be transferred to the spark plug well. If don't clean the wells or be very careful putting the plugs back in, you may brush the electrode against the well and pickup up some of the anti-seize. That can cause a short circuit. Not saying anti-seize isn't a good idea, but I think it should be applied sparsely. You don't mention the required gap for the plugs. When we had silicone cables we always put dielectric grease inside the cap to prevent them from sticking to the plug insulator. Is that not necessary with a coil pack? (I haven't yet worked on a car with coil packs.) Be careful with "electronic sprays" I'm assuming you mean a contact cleaner. Some are devoid of lubricants and because of that the terminals will corrode. I learned this the hard way as an electronic tech for 20+ years.
Torque setting 20Nm for NGK plugs Dielectric grease on ceramic part of the plugs. When removing the coil packs a special tool is used (i have it) to pull them straight up. If the rubber tube remains stuck fill it with compressed air to pop it free. Copper grease on threads? This will affect torque settings. Tip. Get engine warm to pull the coil packs so the rubber boots pulls off easier then wait for the engine to cool to remove the plugs so reducing chance of damaging the threads.
In general, the replacement will be similar, the only thing is that it may differ slightly in the design features of your car. More accurate information can be obtained in the technical documentation for the car or by contacting the service
Dana is back yesssssssssssssssss

Thanks for your comment. We are constantly working to improve our videos.
Great content 🙂
Thank you for your tutorial, my question is the Torque Wrench should be (28 Twenty eight N.m) according to the factory manual or experience?
28 Nm is according to the factory manual.
I have it as 20Nm for the NGK plugs I put in 3 years ago now due for replacement
I appreciate this!!!
After how many km need change di spark plug i have 1.2 mpi engine polo

It is the same think for a golf r mk7.5?

Would love to see a woman remove that cable harness, when not even a normal strenght man have the power! And thats what the video cuts are for... 😉
You can see this starting from 0:21 minutes on the video.
They really need to bring back the rating system....
No gapping?! Smh
