Let’s see how to remove the spark plugs on a Toyota Prius. Pull the lever to open the engine compartment and lift the front bonnet, securing it. Remove the soundproofing panel covering the engine head with a suitable socket (if available), then pull out the coils, unscrew the spark plugs with your socket, and take them out of the head.

Take the new spark plugs and guide them into the engine head with the socket extension. Tighten them and secure the ignition coils, then reinstall the previously removed panel.

Close the engine bonnet.
