How to Replace Spark Plugs on a PEUGEOT 208

Model: Peugeot 208 A9, MK 1 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Spark plugs

After placing the car on a ramp or flat surface and securing it properly, open the bonnet and secure it using the prop rod. Place a cloth over the radiator and the front of the vehicle to protect it from dirt and potential damage. Locate the engine head and, using a screwdriver, unlock and disconnect the electrical connectors for the spark plugs. Then remove the components that connect the power supply to the plugs (after unscrewing the bolts that hold them in place with the appropriate spanner). Insert the correct spanner into the spark plug sockets and, after unscrewing them, pull the plugs out of their seats. Apply lubricant to the contact area of the connecting components with the plugs. Screw the new plugs into their seats and reassemble everything by reversing the previous steps.
