Great idea, thank you, was able to remove all 4 plug caps / HT Leads on my 1.2TSi CBZB Fabia Engine simply by using large cable ties as you described without damage.
Been looking for a Video on how to change the spark plugs on my skoda fabia and i didn’t find anything useful... until i discovered this video!😃 Thanks man you really helped me out here appreciate your work blessings to you and your family.
Absolutely amazing video, super informative and the zip tie trick saved the day ! Literally saved me hundreds of dollars being able to do it myself. Thank you and i hope many others find this video
I wish I could buy you a beer. This video saves me lots of time and money on my Skoda Yeti 1.2 TSi. The only tool that I have to buy is 16mm spark plug socket (cost about 3 USD in Thailand.)
Found if you install the zip ties and gently wriggle them as you are slowly pulling them out, you will over come the suction the rubber seal causes and you don't break the zip ties. I followed your tip and snapped the first zip tie but them used the wriggle method and got even the hard one out without breaking the zip tie. Thanks for your insight and method. Just done the full service, thanks to you cheers.
Thx for posting this. Really helped me alot doing the 1st service on my daughter's golf . I couldn't remove using the cable tie method....but an angled long nosed pliers did the trick.
Thanks for tip with cable ties. I used 7.5mm ties on my 1.2 TSI (Skoda Roomster). I was lucky enough to be able to use ties on all 4 cylinders without removing any engine parts. Be patient and for cylinder 4 take care when guiding plug in.
Followed you oil change, air filter videos... will now try the spark plug change. Haven't changed spark plugs for 20 years..i cant remember it being this tricky..
Thanks for very informative video. I only had small cable ties handy and broke half a dozen. Before I gave up all together I tried 1 last time, this time wiggled the plugs out rather than direct pull and they all came out easily without breaking any more ties! Thanks again
YES, of course❗ Why didn't I think of that❓ The only cautionary note I would add though for others benefit is to be careful not to waggle them too hard. We don't want to break the ceramic on the plugs. If the ceramic breaks there'll be shards of ceramic in the plug hole which might subsequently get into the cyclinders and potentially do damage.
Sir. I have to thank you for making this video, save me a lot of time, you do an exact explication of what to do and the trick was very helpful. Greetings from Mexico.
You are very welcome. I know there is a lot of Saab and VW owners in Latin America so I've been thinking about adding Spanish and Portuguese subtitles now UA-cam has launched a subtitle translator. Do you think that would be helpful for people in the region?
@@Prologui2000 ha ha, yeah it always looks easy when you watch someone else doing summat! this isn't actually difficult as such, just fiddly and frustrating when you keep snapping tie wraps. You could always double up with two tie wraps per
@@Prologui2000 I think this is why VW decided to fit iridium plugs from new - the first owner of the car is unlikely to ever need to change the plugs, it'll probably fall on the second or third owner. Keeps the "cost of ownership" down for the new buyer - which is a competitive metric for fleets especially.
Hi cylone cyd, changing my sparkplugs, of my 2012 caddy 1.2 tsi, i cant get the sparkplug leads of the sparkplug itself. Previous owner never greased up the rubber inserts. Now ordering 4 new sparkplug leads, because they will break when i remove them… thanks for the ziptie tip! Im ordering the ngk leads, they have the plastic covers on it leads itself, it was also a recall back in the time.
Brilliant information, thank you for all thse tips and guidance notes. I am sure that the designer of the engine works part time in a torture chamber to create that convoluted plug lead problem.
Thank you so much for the vlog, im definitely no mechanic and this video has helped me so much and I done a successful spark plug change today with the help from you 😎👊 oil change next 🙈🤞
Awesome. If you're just starting out servicing your own car(s), make sure to equip yourself with a decent filter removal tool. This is the same one you see me using in my video for 1.2TSi oil change, amzn.to/2KBZSCC, and is excellent quality. It will last you a lifetime. It needs a 3/8 drive though. If you have a 1/2 inch socket set, this is very similar and looks just as robust amzn.to/38F1WYg 1.2Tsi oil change ua-cam.com/video/tWT2tG13hIc/v-deo.html - do let us know how you get on.
Hello, very good video. I have a skoda octavia estate 2012 with the 1.4 tsi engine. Would you know if the same plugs are used as you used on the video on the 1.2 tsi. Thanks Graham
Thanks for the instructions! I just learned that my car has a turbo. 😅 Another thing: Do you know if this engine has a cam belt or chain? If it's a belt, do you know the change interval?
Good tip! It's bloody annoying that these are such a fiddly design. Even worse that on the pre-2013 models the lead routing was slightly different, lacked any shielding and number 3 always failed.
Thank you for posting this informative recording. Like the trick with cable ties, always good to have a selection available for different uses. I assume intentionally no copper grease on the plug threads?
DO NOT USE copper grease on spark plugs thread nor anywhere near brakes. The silver coating you see on plug threads these days is specifically designed to ease the removal even after many 10s of 000s of miles.
Hi Cyd I loved that audio joke at the end. One thing I was looking for, you didn't cover... On my car (Fabia 1.2 TSI in Australia) there is all sorts of muck around the spark plugs - looks like bits of grass, moth wings, possibly mouse poo - how do you clean dirt and muck away before removing the plugs? I don't want any any of it to fall in to the combustion chamber.
Ha ha, that's a Jaguar F Pace SVR starting from cold. I recorded it myself when I got a chance to 'assess' one for seat comfort. Awesome, man. Brutal performance and physics-defying handling❗ Try smearing the end of a lolly stick with petroleum jelly and use that to 'pick up' as much debris as poss. Do let us know how you get on
Any help would be appreciated. I viewed a polo i'm interested in buying today. The moment the owner showed me the engine i noticed these 4 cables close to the turbo shield. 2 of them were touching the shield(like the ones in this video) and after 2 mins with the engine working, the plastic spiral cover started to MELT! Is there a way i can stabilize these 2 cables away(not touching) from the shield?!?
Tried your method but all the 5mm cable ties all snapped, 7.5mm ties just too large and kept slipping. Bought a spark plug boot plier off amazon for around £20 inc postage and although not perfect did the job with a lot of wiggling, the use of a flat headed screwdriver where possible and wd40 spray. At 60kmiles I believe this was the first change (and will be the last!) which made the removal difficult. I think some of the rubber was perishing which didn't help. Without your video though I would not have attempted it, Thank you.
Can someome give me a link or the name of the specialized tool for removing the wires? And will normal spark wire pliers work? The ones with a round end.
I knew that there is a conductive lubricant, but to pshik VD40 this is from the realm of fantasy. You have spark plug wires pierced on the first and fourth cylinder or third. The motors are the same as the Skoda Yeti !?
No I didn't, it never even crossed my mind. I have some thoughts on easy home made tools for the job and will be trying some out and if they work I'll do a supplementary video to suggest them. If you have any suggestions find my email on my 'about' page
buenas tardes compañeros tengo el mismo coche y tengo un problema con el cable de la bujia numero 3 estubo mal puesto el cable y se quemo la protreccion saben donde puedo comprar para aislar el cable
I have a question, a VW Polo 1.2 of 70 hp 6R, to change spark plugs is it imperative to buy originals from the brand so as not to make a mistake or can we buy brands like Bosch or NGK or similar in competition? I heard an engineer say that he saw a case where they put some NGKs and it went wrong after a few kilometers, which then went out.
La ringrazio immensamente per i consigli, volevo solo fare presente che il WD-40 che usa alla fine non va bene x i contatti elettrici e le alte temperature (vedere scheda tecnica), meglio usare grafite o lubrificante specifico o anche l alcool non sul motore caldo - alcool poi evapora) English: Sir, I want express a very deep thaknful feeling. Just a counsel, do not use WD-40, it lay on a film of isolation that do not allow passing electricity (see datasheet) best to use graphite or specific lubricants (alcohol is good on cold motor - alcohol at last evaporate). Sorry for my English
Hey Giuseppe, never apologise for your English. My Italian(?) is non existant, so you're well ahead of me. Thanks for the suggestion. Stay safe my friend. Google translation to Italian: Ehi Giuseppe, non scusarti mai per il tuo inglese. Il mio italiano(?) è inesistente, quindi sei molto più avanti di me. Grazie per il suggerimento. Stai al sicuro amico mio.
Ha ha, yeah, back in carbs and distributor days we used to be quite liberal with it on HT systems in the winter. There was a time just getting any car to start in the winter mornings was a battle of wits with the elements
Refer to the vehicle manual for the spark plug replacement interval. It is generally recommended to change after 40-60 thousand kilometers or after four engine oil changes. I received the original candle after 30,000 km / 10 years of vehicle age. So the time of the exchange also plays a role.
Sono di nuovo qua per un importante aggiornamento, oltre a non usare il WD-40, è necessario sgrassare la superficie degli elettrodi con uno spray x contatti elettrici o con alcool propilico, sia la punta delle candele (polo positivo superiore) sia l'elettrodo del cavo altrimenti la macchina potrebbe, andare in protezione con accensione spia EPC e altre. Questo errore è molto difficile da individuare e induce molti professionisti a optare per cambi di elementi molto costosi. English: I'm here again, important notice, as I said do not use WD-40 but use special electric contact cleaner or alcohol isopropylic (cold engine), you will save money and trouble so you don't go into troubles about error on dashboard on EPC signal lit and other error signals lighting on, or ECU going in protection mode. This inconvenient is very hard to find even by professional operators.
