Today we will explain how to replace the spark plugs of the Mercedes CLK model W208. Open the front hood and using a HEX N HW5 key, unscrew the screws on the engine cover and remove it. Use an 8mm socket wrench to disconnect the ignition coil fasteners.

Remove the coils from the holes and clean the interiors with an air compressor.

Unscrew the spark plugs with a 16mm spark plug socket wrench and remove the spark plugs with a ratchet wrench. Apply high-temperature anti-seize lubricant to the new spark plugs and insert them into the holes, following their previous position.

Install the ignition coils and secure the fasteners. Close the cover and start the car to test the spark plugs' operation.
