- Hey guys today we change our buddies spark plugs and one coil pack! We recommend changing them 4 at a time for plugs and coils but if you are low on cash doing one at a time is good enough to get you by! Thanks for tuning in!!
We have stickers!! Hit us up if you want one!
Daily updates?!

I had the same problem.a random misfire ,3 & 4 I replaced the spark plugs but,I had to replace the Four coil ,it was faulty ,,,,I appreciate your time to solve this problem...Thank you so much...thank you,thank you ,tank you.
My 2009 Mini had exactly the same symptom as yours. Went ahead and changed the plugs but it kept on shaking. Performed the test on the coils and found coil 1 was bad. Replaced it and voila! Thank you much.
Glad we could help!!
Sparkplug socket isnt a 15mm and the actual socket has a boot to keep the plug from falling out. Also a little antiseize goes a long way. NGK plugs also do not require antiseize, they have a slip washer installed.
NGK specifically says NOT to use anti-sieze for their plugs, so for people watching it is something to keep in mind.
Furkan Turfanda fair, but seen quite a few of every brand get seized, so, rather anti seize them and prevent any chance. Granted I did think his application was excessive 😂
OMG...that is way too much antiseeze. you only need 1 dot for each plug. Also your oil in the spark plug wells is NOT from an oil change. It IS from a leaky valve cover gasket. There is an O ring around each spark plug well...that is leaking and will definitely make the spark plug misfire.
Thanks for this video . I hadn’t done
The plugs before on my mini and this gave me more clarity
Mine was sounding like that and I replaced 2 coils that were misfiring..thx for this video..can't believe what dealers charge for this 5 min job
Crazy isn't it!
So I installed the new coils on 3 outta 4 cylinders, still getting misfiring (on 2 and 4 primarily) , and a gas smell on a cold start..bad injectors? bad valve springs?
replace the last coil, and new spark plugs
Did that. got misfiring on all cylinders now and smell of gas on cold start.
Sadly could be the valves, I can't imagine what else it would be, but we are NOT experts or MINI trained mechanics, so check with a MINI dealership
the oil could be due to a leaking valve cover gasket..they dry out and become brittle thereby allowing oil to weep by and enter the spark-plug hole... quite common in older motors....
Very true but this was an extreme amount in 2 spots but all 4 also luckily never came back after we checked and replace the coils
100% Hank ...Yesterday holes 1 and 4 had oil in them. So I cleaned the coils, replaced the spark plugs and changed my valve cover gasket without breaking anything (slow and steady I say). Gaskets were very hard (my MINI has 106000 miles on the clock). Took the car for a long run and checked again today ... no sign of oil in spark plug holes ... and it ran smoother.
You have bigger problems than a coil pack. The timing chain tensioner is on the way out and the oil is coming from a bad valve cover gasket.
Hand tighten the spark plugs before using a ratchet as you can easily cross thread the head.
My 2013 S went into safe mode and today I had it scanned and its a cylinder misfire, coil pack . I will be changing all of mine out soon.
Great job gents. I had a cylinder three misfire code. Changed the coil and it sounded better. Haven’t felt the regular boost from the turbo. Next step check spark plugs?
Make sure you don't have any loose charge pipes from the turbo to the intake too!
the oil your mentioning at 1:05 is from valve cover gasket failure, which might have lead to the damaging the coil.
Niles Ingalls that's what I thought but didn't see anywhere that it would have leaked from! Thanks
@@TheSOMotorsports It is often misdiagnosed as seepage is low. Most common cause is valve cover removal and replacement using original gasket and not being torqued correctly. Weak spot on the gasket is at 11 o'clock from plug hole #1
@@spacecoasttactical She is long gone by now, the owner crashed it ha
The oil,was causing the missfire, which lead to the coil pack going bad.,
They are notorious for failing valve cover gaskets
The plugs are 14mm, not 15mm…also 12 point sockets
I have exactly the same sound. But the coils are fine and the fuel injectors. The third position where the fuel injector goes is iresponsive to any new fuel injector or coil change. What do you think wrong with it?
Great video man!
Great video lads, very informative, cheers.
Thank you!
Please research regarding how to properly torque spark plugs when using 'anti-seize'. According to the NKG website ngksparkplugs.com/en/resources/5-things-you-should-know-about-spark-plugs:
Anti-seize compound can act as a lubricant altering torque values up to 20 percent, increasing the risk of spark plug thread breakage.
Thanks for the help
jesus!!!... a little anti seize goes a LONG way... you caked them in it!!
Johnny's got PTSD from some stuck plugs 😂😂 the mini is long gone anyway.
Hey guys, thanks for the video. I'm watching because I had a misfire on my 2015 Mini R60. The check engine light came on and the 1/2 power light came on the steering console. It has been in the shop for "8" days and the mechanic still isn't sure what is wrong with it. He said he changed the plugs, checked the compression, changed all coils, replaced the injector on the misfiring cylinder (#4) and it's still misfiring. He now wants to try replacing the DME at $1,900.00. I'm freaking out! What should I do??
No idea bud, you saw our issue was the coil, we don't know anything other than that
Vanos solenoid is most likely but can also can be caused by a binding vacuum pump. Take out and clean the vanos solenoids, unbolt vacuum pump and turn it by hand to see if it is binding (should turn freely)
I bought 4 brand new coils and still had a misfire
New plugs helped.
Still misfire
2 of the new coils were bad. So.i have mixed coils and no misfire ugh
That's awful! Try to get money back for the new defective ones. Glad you figured it out
Try taking out and cleaning the vanos solenoids
Hey thanks guys I really appreciate it just got me through this but how long till the engine light goes off
The Vaping Illegal
Most cars are like 30 miles, but you may have to clear it
My 2011 Mini took maybe 20 engine starts before the eng. light cleared.
Hey my girlfriend has a 2002 Mini Cooper r50 same thing is happening she has the warning light that's a triangle with a arrow around it I replaced the coil and the ignition leads but it still shakes and wobbles (does what it did when you pulled 1 of the things out) got any clue what it could be? From zero to ten the car sounds like it wants to die!
Blayde Cornell so you did coils, and the wires, did you check the plugs for spark?
I replaced the spark plugs . The dashboard won’t turn on
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Check the fluid in your blinker
Mini wants $900 for new coils and spark plugs. Is this pretty easy? (you made it look easy). Anything to watch out for?
Nah it's all easy. Just watch you don't break the clips on the cover and make sure you check factory torque of course!
I’ve watched a few of these coil videos. One guy used something like a weed puller but mine came out easily by hand.
Yes. Use the right socket (14mm 12 point thin wall long reach socket) Remove the connector from the coil pack BEFORE pulling it out. Don't put antiseize on the plug threads, just a TINY bit of copper grease. Also never, EVER, hold a live coil pack when the motor is running. If it has a short then get ready for a trip to the promised land
Hi, I have 2007 mini cooper 2 doors, 212kms. After 10 minutes of driving, when I'm stopped on a red light its shaking the engine heavy and the rpm goes up and down. Could it be fixed if I replaced what u guys did?
Potentially! Make sure you take it to a professional if possible when the problem occurs so he can tell you more positively. If not go ahead and change all 4 plugs and coils and see how it works. They should be replaced as routine maintenance anyway.
As always we aren't mechanics so take our word at your own risk. It may or may not solve your issue, we have no way to work out a problem over youtube comments. Good luck!
@@TheSOMotorsports thx for getting back to me in a very timely manner. Will go ahead and do that. Thx again.
AK Auto Collision Ltd. So did you try it and did it work?
@@akaDavidWebb yes worked
Clean your throttle body if you have one. Comman issue with Asperated r56 ers.
Where did you you buy the parts? Any auto store?
Yeah whatever local store you have, or rockauto
F**K ME... I did it backwards!! I had the misfire madness, so I replaced the coil packs FIRST and didn't replace the plugs. I cleared the codes and the p0301 didn't come back for a few weeks and NOW ITS BACK!!! Perhaps, my old coil packs weren't bad and it just needed new plugs. I should have known better, I DO KNOW BETTER. Always... ALWAYS start with the simplest, least expensive fix. Well $H!T...
John McDermott kiss. Keep it simple stupid. Lol don't worry we all do it!
That motor still sounds like shit.
Maybe you should've put some more anti seize on that one plug 😂😂 Pro tip: that packet of anti seize is enough to do ten plug changes....you dont need that nasty crap on plugs anyway.
