Let's see how to change the spark plugs on a Hyundai i20 with a petrol engine: Remove the engine cover using a 10 mm socket, unscrew the two bolts securing the plastic engine cover, and remove it. Disconnect the components and unscrew the spark plugs, then insert a 16 mm spark plug socket with an extension into the housing to loosen and unscrew the spark plugs.

Now, for extraction: To pull out the unscrewed spark plugs from their deep housing, use a magnet.

When inserting the new spark plugs, gently guide them with your finger into the housing until fully seated. This precaution helps prevent the electrode from hitting the base, altering the correct gap. You can find the 4 Bosch spark plugs on Amazon with the code B0GT3PGZ8K for £34.48, with free delivery.

Screw and tighten the new spark plugs securely in place, then replace the engine cover, and you're done.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
