In the spirit of old school maintenance (and a need to tinker), I replaced the spark plugs this weekend...
Microfilter housing out
Coil cover comes off
Unplug the coils and remove, out comes the first plug
Replaced by new Genuine BMW NGK BKR6EQUP
With a little anti-seize...
Rinse and repeat
The plugs that came out looked in good shape, with a light brown shade on the insulator. No surprise given they only had 47K miles on 'em. Regardless, happy to see the engine appears healthy.
Almost time for cooling system and vcg! Looks great btw. And black is my last favorite color.
