I just watched the tutorial again and I realize that I didn't grease the turbo hose, could that be the cause?

Another question, do you put the clips back before putting it back?

thanks again

Good evening

after successfully changing my spark plugs thanks to the very well done tutorial, I have a problem with acceleration I have a loud blowing noise

without engine light or loss of power

Can you give me some direction?

thank you

After changing the spark plugs following some starting difficulties, I followed the tutorial without any problem, the car starts but stalls immediately, where could this come from? Thank you

Good morning,

Make sure you have reconnected the connector indicated in step 6

It is possible that another plug may be disconnected during handling.

Check all visible connectors, even those of the injectors.

If everything seems to be connected correctly, then you will need to connect the diagnostic case for analysis.

We remain at your disposal for any additional information.

Yours sincerely,

The Oscaro Team
