Hi mate when purchasing new plugs do they already come gapped to the right size or do I need to set the gap myself?

[@EllsAutoCare]

No, must come pre gapped to spec now. It wont hurt to check them if you want , but iv never had an issue

Hi, Thank you for a very helpful video. We had code 89 pop up on our 2014 1.4 Petrol Mokka, looking online it mentioned the spark plugs maybe need changing so we have changed all 4 using the advice in this video. Is there anything that you need to reset on the dash after you change the spark plugs? We continuously have code 89 pop up even after running a diagnostic check and no ECU faults showing up. Many thanks in advance

What scan tool are you using ?

[@presiyanadimitrova1162]

@@EllsAutoCare It's a SnapOn Diagnostic that was plugged in to read any codes

@@presiyanadimitrova1162 have you tried resetting the service light?

[@presiyanadimitrova1162]

@@EllsAutoCare We have done the oil life reset where you hold down the button until it shows 100%. we did that after the engine oil was changed and this came after we changed the spark plugs, after doing so it still showed code 89 when we switched the ignition on and the car on. Is there a different service reset which we need to do?

I've just used your brilliant video to change the 4 spark plugs..I'm no mechanic but was straightforward and easy...however I also have the same problem with code 89 still showing. I've checked and this can only be reset by using a diagnostic tool connected to the car or by a garage ..you can't reset it on the steering wheel like the oil etc...yet there is actually nothing wrong with the car.. recommendations what to buy to reset the code or can it be done with a laptop ( perhaps )? Otherwise having saved a fortune changing them myself only to have to take into a mechanic to reset a code grrrr

Very good video and easy to understand. Many thanks

Thank you so much Jeff I really appreciate it

Does the engine have to be cold during the replacement or it doesnt matter?

[@EllsAutoCare]

@@Luftwaffe777 yeah I’d say so mate. If the engines hot it could make the threads soft. Its not worth the risk really

[@Luftwaffe777]

@@EllsAutoCare tomorrow i have to do this but waiting till its cold when we have 30deg - no time. I will wait until it is not hot;)

[@EllsAutoCare]

@@Luftwaffe777 🤣🤣🤣 I’m sure if you leave it over night it will be fine in the morning

[@aciddiver1978]

Easy peasy

[@EllsAutoCare]

Hope it helped 😊

[@kevintoms9338]

Good vid. However you should really install the spark plugs with specified torque

[@EllsAutoCare]

Yep your correct

[@sundek88]

Well done mate
