Thanks for sharing, replacement is easy and access is quick, when you have the right tools!
It is interesting to specify that it is absolutely necessary a 14mm ***12-SIDED*** spark plug socket to be able to dismantle these candles de Mini Countryman.
I found myself like an idiot with my socket, I knew it was 14mm, but it was 6-sided. This would have saved me a trip to the store!
Also remember to check the length of your socket in relation to the spark plugs, you need one that is quite long.
Hello, do we have to unplug the coils? Because otherwise it comes out without unplugging the coils
