It is recommended to perform this repair with the engine cold. Open the bonnet and ensure it is securely supported: near the oil level dipstick, you can see the ignition coils with the corresponding spark plug leads.

Unscrew the coil fixing screw, disconnect the connector, and remove it along with the lead. At this point, unscrew the old spark plug and replace it with the new one without over-tightening.

Reattach the lead to the coil, tighten the coil fixing screw, and reconnect the connector. Proceed in the same manner for the other spark plugs.
