To replace the spark plugs on a BMW X3, open the hood to access the engine compartment and remove the plastic cover from the top of the engine. Here, on the left side, disconnect the connectors attached to the coil and use a suitable wrench to remove all the spark plugs from their sockets.

Once all the spark plugs are removed, replace them with new parts, which should be inserted into the sockets. After the replacement, reconnect the connectors to the coil and install the plastic engine cover.
