Just an FYI to anyone attempting this: Be careful when starting the spark plugs. I always start them with the extension by hand to make sure they are threading in nicely before I attach a wrench to it. You risk cross threading them when you start them with a wrench. Your dealing directly with the cylinder head so you do not want to mess that up. Great video man!
Should also tighten with a torque wrench.
The engineer that decided to use an allan key instead one of those pop off things. So you have to take off all that just to get the engine cover must be clinically insane!
Great vid and I've learnt a lot from it and the comments. Thanks everybody!
👍🏾💯
Excellent Video Carl. I am speechless and how accurate the video was to follow and not to mention the money I have saved in garage costs. I cannot thank you enough. Absolutely FANTASTIC, FAMILY.
🥳💯
Excellent video Carl, just changed my coil pack following your guide and fixed my misfire! Thanks man 👊🏻
Love the content nice to see videos like this,small cheap mods makes you feel satisfied and love your pride and joy,
Mo Khan Thank you I appreciate it! Yeah that’s so true and it’s nice learn about new things about the car 👍🏾💯
I did this morning!!cheers bro! 💪🏻
Don’t go anywhere 😂😂 My mum might be getting a 1 series soon, these videos could really come in handy. Great video 👍
FIetch2002 😂😂🏃🏾♂️ that’s awesome she’ll love it and Thank you! 👍🏾
Thanks for the video man, really helpful..
God bless you! 🙏
Peter Dabica 🙏🏾💯
I’m going to attempt to do this after seeing ur vid. Nice one mate 👍
Ryno Fourtwenty No worries mate 👍🏾
Found you video on changing the air filter really useful mate, cheers! Might give the spark plugs a go…..😬
top man !! with your instructions, just changed faulty ignition pack on 'poor running' friends car... big thanx :)
That’s awesome nice one! 👍🏾💯
Good video well done bro 👍👌
The engine bay is looking clean bruv!
BearsZ4 vlogs Cheers bruv!
The whole car is Peak! Summer is coming haha get me 😉
BearsZ4 vlogs Cheers man! I can’t wait 😎
Bruh not bruv bro
Thanks for the easy to follow tutorial. You’ve given me, a 40 yr old mum, the necessary gumption to fix my currently misfiring 130i e87!
Simone Pereira Wow that’s awesome! And no problem! 😄💯
CARL IS ONIT went to get the spark plugs and just like one would expect with a euro motor, each one is $17.99 AUD. I wish that was the biggest issue. To avoid a repeat performance in a few months, I’m replacing all 6. logical but every place I call has to do a special order! BMW seem as bad as Apple! I’m expecting to see “this accessory is not supported” on my dash once it’s done and I do the diagnostic check!
@@simonepereira5874 Yeahh BMW can be a headache when it comes to parts hopefully it gets sorted ASAP!
CARL IS ONIT as a child of the 90’s I can’t leave without mentioning the name for ur channel is fitting but also reminds me of😎NAS! Awesome license plates! I’ll leave you alone now matey. Cheers😉
@@simonepereira5874 Hahaa! that's awesome! Thank you! :D
Sick vid bro🔥 just a lil advice for anyone when putting in the new spark plugs thread it in gently by hand on the extension bar then tighten with the ratchet/tool or cross threading can happen which can be a costly mistake.
My thought as well.
Great video, very helpfull!
A little advice from my side, because I had that problem: In case you're having problems with the engine stuttering (the n43 is unfortunately known for this happening), it's most likely a problem regarding the ignition coils! I changed mine from bosch to delphi rev3 and also used ngk spark plugs. The bosch ignition coils are known for heating up too much and break. So, if you ever have a problem with the engine not running smoothly, keep that in mind!
Greetings from germany!
Thank you! I appreciate the advise! 👍🏾
Thank you! Helped me alot!
Juulbakker33 No problem! 💯
Good one!
A bag makin a run 4 it.. That intro BLOWED my mind lol JK mate! 😄 @ 00:45 ohhhh you did an Engine Wash already? I just did one today one Parents Volvo V70 Classic here. Will be doing it also for the Golfs, the GT R-Line & GTI Clubsport after. But first we need to fix some rust damage here 👍
3DFX Hahahaa 😂
Yeah it was cleaned
Ahh ok and yeah rust is priority to fix 👍🏾
That intro was class 😂
Shaq 🏃🏾♂️😂
Bro I bought so many sockets before I seen this video 😱
I don’t have a petrol one of these but I remember having a conversation with the mechanic who serviced my diesel convertible and he owns a petrol, he said he removes the strut brace when he changes the plugs, you managed to do the job without
David Viner Had to work my way around it and improvise 😉
Man like Carl ya kno!!
Peter S 👊🏾
Did it! Saved $500.00
dlee409 Nice one! 💯
Nice work, am also trying to change the sparkplug for my BMW 1Serie but I don't know where to find it, can you give me some tips on how?
Just wondering mate should I change my BMW 1 series coil? its all okey now but make more gasolina/fule better? if I change.... explain this to me do I need to change then?
Awesome
Tom Crawford Thank you!
Thank you for the video I will do it 🤣 hope I will make it
🙏🏾💯
How about a oil change video ? Great video BTW:)
As others have said, be really careful with the first spark plug, the one at an angle by the cooling fan at the front.
My car had a misfire, so went to change spark plugs and cylinder 1 (front of engine bay) was cross threaded!! Had to get a specialist out to remove and retap the head. Thankfully he could do it without removing the head, it cost £150 though.
I still have problems with cylinder 1 to this day though, the plugs and coil packs did work for a bit but it seems cylinder 1 doesn't like working properly. Could be an injector i suppose at this point but cba with it. I just try and avoid it going into limp mode by driving like a granny lol
First of all thx for the great video on replacing the sparkplugs. Im gonna replace the sparkplugs soon on my bmw e87 2007 and i was wondering which specific bosch ones did you use?
martijn waalkes Thank you and no problem I used these spark plugs: rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-53481-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575408247&toolid=10001&campid=5338522631&customid=&mpre=https%3A%2F%2Frover.ebay.com%2Frover%2F0%2F0%2F0%3Fmpre%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.ebay.co.uk%252Fulk%252Fitm%252F301853671674
@@CARLISONIT Thx man gonna order the same :). Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the vid. This helped get to my spark plugs. Only problem is, the size tools I had wouldn't get any hold of the spark plugs in the engine. Used an extension bar with a 14mm 3/8 socket. They fit the new sparks going in, just not the ones inside! Could it be that the previous owner used different sparks or incorrect ones should I say? Or is there a tool you have listed on the info of your vid that I need to get these ones out? Guessing it be that wobble socket you used? What different would that make compared to my simple 14mm 3/8 I have?
Also the car is a 2007 e87 1.6i 1 series
Richings110 no worries. I’ve listed all the equipment you would need in the description, in your case you would need the wobble in order to remove them I did the same thing with a normal 14mm but BMW placed them in an awkward position hence you would need the wobble
@@CARLISONIT thanks so much mate, I shall order that today. All the best 👍
Do you not need to check the spark plug gap? Are they pre gapped already?I got them from euro car parts. Great video, am gonna try tackle this myself. It so much easier on other cars though
You can do the reason I installed the ones in the description is because they came pre-gapped 👍🏾💯
@@CARLISONIT ok cool, thanks for getting back to me man
Hey Carl just checking how many spark plugs are there on the n43 engine? Going to have a go at the weekend! Euro car parts here I come!
infamouss Gamer Hey, it has 4 spark plugs as it’s a 4 cylinder engine and nice one 👍🏾
Where did you buy the coils? Would you happen to have a part number?
Huge fan, love your videos!
However, this is not the correct procedure on how to tighten the plugs.
You either:
1. Tighten them BY HAND (no tools) and then using a torgue wrench tighten them to the correct spec.
or
2. Tighten the BY HAND (no tools) and then using a wrench like yours , tighten them by 1/4 of a turn.
Love your channel, sad to see the e88 go.
Keep it up with serious mods (no rice please :) )
Wym by tighten them by 1/4? Another 90 degrees?
Hey bro..
Nice vid..
My 118i has developed a judder...
Thinking it's the coil or plugs..
Should I just replace the lot..
Or try the plugs first
Hey bro when was the last time the car was serviced? how many miles ago?
@@CARLISONIT I bought it about 8 months ago.. and it had been serviced then..
It's coming up to 80k so probably worth me doing coils, plugs.. oil and filter ,air filter etc
dan yeah it definitely will be worth doing all that you mentioned
Let me know how it goes
Cheers fella..
Will do
what are the measures those spark plugs ? i mean if this M12x1.25 or M14x1.25 ?
do you recommend changing all 4 spark plugs or just the one that misfires? I have misfiring in Cylinder 4 when the engine is at a low RPM
sjakkelino you will need to change all spark plugs to be safe
@@CARLISONIT Ait. Will do. Thank you mate.
@@mhvdm No worries mate
I changed my spark plugs back last summer, I’ve got a misfire cylinder 1 do u think changing the coil pack will solve issue ?
Yeah that might be the next step to do, but it depends how long ago were they changed?
Apologies in advance if this is an obvious question. I have a 116i e87 2.0 petrol. I ordered some spark plugs before I watched your video. They are 16mm and not 14mm like your ones. Would these be the wrong size then? I need to buy a removal tool so I'm a bit confused as to what size to buy, 14mm or 16mm. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
ADot I believe they would be 16mm which means you’ll need a 16mm removal tool with a wobble as the 116i is the n46 engine
@@CARLISONIT
2.0 L Petrol Engine 116i 90kw is not N46, but N43B20A .
Hello! I tried to change the spark plugs but couldn't, because the key it's too tick.
Can you please tell me what kind of key are you using? Thank you!
Peter Dabica there’s a link in the description to all the tools used
Brother kindly tell me which spark plugs should I buy for my BMW 116i E87 2006 model?
Saad Jamal Khan use this one brother 👍🏾 rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-53481-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575408247&toolid=10001&campid=5338573603&customid=&mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fitm%2FSpark-Plugs-x-4-Bosch-Fits-BMW-1-Series-E81-E87-116i-3-Series-E90-316i-115bhp-%2F302580403401
Torque wrench is a must! The settings is 23Nm and that's VERY IMPORTANT!
Tom Hell so far it’s been fine but, I’ll remember that for next time thanks for the advise I appreciate it 👍🏾
Hey man! Thinking of buying an E82 120i. How do you spot the difference between a 120i 150ps and the 170ps (most powerful) model ? Thanks
Hey man Which country are you based?
@@CARLISONIT Hey man thanks for the reply! I'm based in Morocco (but all new BMWs sold here are imported from France)
Hamza Bayya The 120i made from 2007-2011 will always be the higher power version using N43B20 engine, however the 118i also shares the same engine but it’s the detuned version, you will be fine with any 120i you choose 👍🏾💯
@@CARLISONIT thanks for the info man. Indeed did some research and found out that the e82s have the n43. But i saw a used one (2010) and checked the vin, it has the n46b20b. What do you think
@@nohandle846 I got a e87 120i n46b20 115kw. Did you buy the one you've mentioned? I am curious of you opnion on its performance.
I want to replace my coils too, but I don't know what brand is best for my car (E88 118i N43)... Any recommendation?
I recommend using Bosch coil pack 👍🏾💯
@@CARLISONIT thanks bro 👌🏾
Did you need the wobble spark plug socket or would a fixed one be alright?
You would need a wobble spark plug socket a fixed one wouldn’t allow you to get access to it
@@CARLISONIT arh brill, thanks for confirming mate
@@CARLISONIT Hi Carl, i have a rigid spark plug socket in the correct size, and i have a variable angle knee piece that i can put on that. would that do? or do i need a wobblesocket either way?
@@pieter8947 I recommend the wobble socket 👍🏾💯
hi carl , where is OIL PRESSURE SENSOR ?? , I can not find it .
It’s right next to the oil filter it’s like a small plug that you need to unscrew
Carl, just replaced all 6 plugs but engine still sound like a lawn mower? Can you shed any light to point me on the right direction? Got an e87 m series 6 speed 130i
A Shakur Does the engine have a rattling noise? What symptoms are you experiencing?
Injectors
I notice i bought the wrong plugs. Purchase the long one like yours, however the ones in the car is short. Very confusing.
Shane Adrian Joseph what model is yours?
It’s only a matter of time where they put 4 15 sec adds without the option to skip
What is that engine? N55?🤔
+1
You should start the engine before you end the video , I want to hear it damn it
Does it really matter how much newton meters of torque is on the plugs?
ricardo verde yes it’s recommended 23nm of torque
Hie m desperately need a pvc valve for that very bmw 1 series.M in Zimbabwe, there's nothing in stock here
Dm me on instagram @carlisonit I can get one to be sent to you

Bro what is name of this spana for spark
There’s a link in the description for everything 👍🏾💯
My 120d is showing the glow plugs sign is this related to the coil pack??
Cameron Pickett this wont have anything to do with the coil pack as diesels don’t have any, but when was the last time the glow plugs were changed?
Unless it’s below zero degrees the glow plug light goes out when you press the starter button so it could be a sensor as BMWs seem to have lots of them, you need to get it checked out though as the glow plugs aren’t just for starting the vehicle. They need to be careful if they need to be changed over as a broken one could mean engine work to remove what’s left, bit like removing the root of a wisdom tooth
David Viner cheers boys, will probs get it checked out soon
CARL IS ONIT I’ve only had the car two months so not sure if they even have been serviced!
David Viner the icon only shows every now and then
is n43 reliable engine ?

Zac Jones Haha what one have you got at the moment?
@@CARLISONIT well I've got a blacked out 1 series 116i and am wondering what happens when the spark plugs blow ain't serviced for a year, I am now. Lol. It was running good, I started it up in the morning and the cars vibating on revs and engine knocking, misfiring i think, I dont think its the other knocks or piston slap est. What you think spark plugs blown?
Zac Jones Z Nice! But 1 year is way too long lol best thing to do is process of elimination do all the serviceable items like spark plugs change oil then you can move on to other things have you had your car recalled yet if not they’ll give you a vehicle health check
Yeah mate where my car was parked, knocking and misfiring. There was a garage right in front of me, how lucky rolled it there. Cuz it dint sound nice. And i couldn't service it my self where it was or move it. I was in a dilemma, am learning alot about cars now and gonna do it all my self. Anyway it was spark plugs and coil. I paid 150 lol I know I could of done it my self am gonna look after her now she sounds better and runs better got more bhp lol. And am getting on a full service. Its all good. Sound
