@@doit_vehicles the engine has the exact layout tho, big 4 inlet manifold on the front, engine oil cap to the left and plastic air box leading to pipes with the 4 coils around the back. I am looking to do my spark plugs myself and there is no video available online for the MK8 1.4 Civic EU model
Where did you get the specs for that spark plug gap from? I got the ngk plugs for my 1.4 Civic but everyone online seem to all give different gap sizes.
Or you could just use the access panel that Honda created for you. Take off the centre section of the black trim at the bottom of the screen, remove the silver access panel and bingo loads of room.
I tried this but you need to remove quite a bit more. Like the windshield wipers. I think it's easier on the 8th gen civic. I got the 9th gen 2012 like in the video.

Good, easy to follow video. But, holy crap, this is an involved process just to change sparkplugs!
Thanks, yes it is
At second 23 I've seen enough room to try to change all sparks without removing anything else than coils. Operation completed few minutes ago 😉
Я маю такий же мотор вже хочу регулювати клапани I vtec зазори можете показати як дивитись зазори на цьому двигуні
Does the MK8 eu model have the same engine? They look identical

@@trick_show9469 yes, it is the same engine. Those engines are the only ones fully Made in Japan.

From some database . A good rule of thumb, if the engine is not turbocharged the gap is always less tha 1 mm
do I put anti seize on the end of the spark plugs?
for a 2013 Honda civic
no need
Hi.. is your car Honda Civic 2014 ex sedan??
Estate
OMG I hate the hectic method of changing plugs on this model. I am glad that I got the ninth generation.

all this just for changing spark plugs, i thought Japanese cars are easy to work on? this seem like a spaceship!
Yes , way too much for 1.6L 4 cylinder engine ! 😂
Every 75000 miles it's not something you do regularly on these.
