How to change the glow plugs of the Kia Soul MK2

Model: Kia Soul MK 2 - Years 2013-2018
Part: Glow plugs

In this video we can see how to change the glow plugs in the engine of the Kia Soul MK2: this whole operation must be done with the engine very warm, so that the glow plugs come off easily. First, we must disconnect the negative pole of the battery, then we remove the cover behind the engine block, after removing the power wire and the support bracket; then there are electrical connectors that are connected to a channel, and they must be disconnected. The channel must also be removed, because the glow plugs are right under the cover we have to remove. It is advisable to move the flexible tube and the black cable that are on the right of the channel. The fourth glow plug is in a more awkward position. When you go to put the new glow plugs back, do not forget a little copper grease on the threads, and tighten them without exaggerating.
