This video shows how to remove and replace the coil pack, which is the housing for our spark plugs. If your car has issues such as misfires in one of the cylinders, the cause may lie in the coil pack.

To proceed with its removal, extract the cover of the engine bay secured with a couple of hex head screws; then locate the housing of the coil pack, which in this case is situated just above the engine oil cap. Proceed with its removal by simply unscrewing the anchoring screws and fit the new coil pack; finally, check the correct operation.
