Just changed out my plugs lots of oil in just spark plug #1 (most front of car). Rest looked good and dry. Good demo here only difference was in mine the lids that cover wiring connections didn’t just pop open like shown here. I needed to pry open lid with a screw driver, gently wiggling it open, the rest was exactly as seen here. Thanks for posting!
thanks for the video, very rare to find content for my z4... this morning my engine started misfiring (at least I am guessing that's what it is), I started the car it was fine for few seconds (I was waiting for a warmup) then the sound of the car completely changed and started sounding like a tractor, and I could totally feel low frequency vibration, a shake in my car on idle. I think if I'm lucky its just one of the spark plugs.
But that would take hours and I think no car mechanic has time for that. I guess you could use a lower torque setting. I've used 27Nm instead of 30Nm, but still it felt quite higher than you would normally tighten them by hand. However I think this guy here has nothing to worry about because it didn't tighten them up too hard at all.
Thanks for watching! If this helps out and saves you money, even a $1 Super Thanks would be appreciated. Thanks again! 👍✔🔑
You can mix the ignition coils. They're all the same parts. What you don't want to mix or change orders are the connectors/wires.

Thank you for the video, it helped me a lot, you are the best!
Who else thinks the click of the ignition coils is extremely satisfying
Thanks vid what coins not interchangeable ??? Cheers.
I've replaced them on mine, one at a time so no chance to mix the coils up.
Great video thank you! What do you think of the NGK iridium IX spark plugs in my Z4?
Those are great too
Thanks for the help. Just did mine.
Exelente 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 tanks for you video. 👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏾🙌🏾😎
Very informative thanks.
Brilliant thank you
Hey, so the Bosch plugs you used were already gapped?
Yes I forgot what kind, but the higher quality ones are pre-gapped
Anti-seize on plug treads ?
That could work! Wouldn't do it myself being anxious it would go into the engine.
Jose Niles no. Modern plugs no need for anti-seize grease.
Yes I always put anti seize.
Tanks
Hi guys
...don't laugh but do the plugs need set with that gap thingy?
It depends on the spark plug, some like the iridium ones are already gapped
why take both covers off you only work on the one side ?
You have to remove one to remove the other
❣ skip YT ads go to the end then restart 👈
I just replaced my valve cover gasket less than a year ago and replaced spark plug 2, 3,4,6 but not 1 and 5 and now spark plug 1 is gone to shit lol
Why would you not replace all the spark plugs 🤔
Thanks.
not a good idea to put the plugs back into a warm aluminum head. let the motor cool down completely or removal next time could be difficult.....
Thanks for the tip, it might have been why mine were stuck too.
