Replacing the Spark Plugs on a Toyota Aygo MK1

Model: Toyota Aygo MK 1, Ab10 - Years 2005-2014
Part: Spark plugs

Here’s how to replace the spark plugs on a Toyota Aygo MK1. Open the bonnet, disconnect the breather hose clip and, using a suitable pliers, disconnect the air filter outlet hose clip, open the catches and remove the box. Cover the air intake with a cloth, disconnect the three coil connectors, spray a release agent and unscrew the 10mm bolts of the coils and remove them. Clean the seats with an air jet, using a 16mm socket, loosen the spark plugs and retrieve them from the well with a magnet. Take the new spark plugs, apply anti-seize grease to the threads and terminals, insert them into the wells, screw them in by hand first and then tighten them with a torque wrench to 25Nm. Refit the other components in reverse order.
