This is likely the next thing I'll have to do with my Micra pushing towards 100,000 km. Since the one plug is so inaccessible, does it make sense to replace the coil assembly (or anything else) while the manifold is off?
Yes. My daughter’s k13 started having coil packs fail around 115,000km. I would replace the plugs and all coils with the 100,000km service as it’s such a pain to get at the cylinder 1 plug and coil. Use the recommended long life spark plugs.
@@bajanspx Great, I'll do that. Decent coils (NGK, Beru, etc.) are quite expensive so I may just replace the one under the manifold. Unlike the Micra in the video, mine is not supercharged, so two of the spark plugs are easy to do - it's just the one on the front left that's a pain. Might even make sense to change the two easily accessible plugs, and put the new coil on one of them, drive around with them for a week to make sure there are no issues, before replacing the third (and putting the old coil back on the earlier plug).
there is any valve for the air if you take out the two water cables? Because my mech for change the plugs remove two water cable but i know the air is an enemy
@@micradocs problems like? the petrol or lpg gas use is the same i see soo no more air enter in the system so i think i make the right work... but soon i have to give the car to a nissan mechanic for change some important pieces of the engine.... my car have 120.000km so i think it's the time right now, with service rope (not know the right english name); and water pomp included and keep a general eye to brakes and under the car
I had to take the air box off as it was connected to the clamp and I had to undo the screws to that clamp, in order to do so I had to remove the air box to make space

Thank you for the video, I just finished replacing mine, it was fun!
You convinced me to take the car to the mechanic.
I am surtprised you did not remove also the back door & the seering wheel...

I just removed the bolts and moved everything slightly out of the way.
2nd question i not replace the three air conduct intake manifold gasket
, it's a problem?
Make sure to put everything you have removed back to its original position. Or you could experience problems
No, not a problem. I bought new gaskets (rubber seals) but the old ones appeared to be perfectly fine, and would probably last for many more years.

What's the life expectancy of the stock plugs?
ngk platinum plugs like 100.000km i know
What size socket did you use?
It's a certain socket especially for spark plugs, 14mm.
why did you take the air box off ??
I had to take the air box off as it was connected to the clamp and I had to undo the screws to that clamp, in order to do so I had to remove the air box to make space
