Part: Spark plugs

How do you change the spark plugs on a Volkswagen Polo? First, open the engine compartment and lift the bonnet, then disconnect the battery terminals. Remove the soundproofing panel covering the engine, and using a screwdriver, take off the coils on the cylinder head; unscrew the spark plugs with a socket wrench and pull them out of the cylinder head. Take the new spark plugs and guide them into the cylinder head using the extension of the socket wrench.
