Do you want to remove the spark plugs from your Clio yourself? Let's see how to do it in this video. Pull the engine compartment release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard and lift the front bonnet, securing it. Remove the engine cover panel, grasp the coil with your hands and twist it until it comes out of the cylinder head.

Use a socket wrench to unscrew the spark plugs. Take the new spark plug and insert it into the cylinder head using a spark plug socket, then connect the power connector.

Repeat the same procedure for all the spark plugs to be changed. Finally, reassemble the plastic cylinder head cover panel.
