How often should the spark plugs of Golf 6 be replaced?
1 Answers
The spark plugs of Golf 6 should normally be replaced after driving 40,000-50,000 kilometers, and can be replaced with iridium-platinum spark plugs. Under normal maintenance conditions, they should be replaced when driving 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers, but this may vary depending on the brand and engine. It is recommended to follow the user manual. The following standards can be used as a reference for maintenance and replacement: platinum spark plugs should be replaced at 40,000 kilometers, ordinary nickel alloy spark plugs at 20,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs at 60,000-80,000 kilometers. Steps to replace the spark plugs: Open the engine hood, lift the plastic cover of the engine, remove the high-voltage distributor wires, and mark the position of each cylinder to avoid confusion. Use a spark plug socket to remove the spark plugs one by one. When removing them, check for any leaves, dust, etc., on the outside and make sure to clean them thoroughly. Place the new spark plugs into the spark plug holes, hand-tighten them a few turns, and then use the socket to tighten them further. Install the removed high-voltage distributor wires in the firing order and snap the cover back into place.
