| Re: Fabia 1.2 sparkplug access!! remove engine cover (prior to this remove tiny rubber hoses to airbox) and a sharp tug upwards is needed to remove the cover... it will come off even though it feels it won't, unclip coilpacks (very carefully) and spark plugs are accessed as normal onece these are removed.   Coil packs are in centre in black plastic x3

| Fabian  | Re: Fabia 1.2 sparkplug access!! I think you might have to explain to the dieselheads what a coil pack is, otherwise they'll all want some, to get a few extra BHP. |

well i found the power steering was a little more difficult to get to than the spark plugs... so needed to move the side panel out of they way  (got to look on the bright side really!)

| Briskodian | Re: Fabia 1.2 sparkplug access!! The pic in Richard's post doesn't display in my browser. Are the coil packs on top of the cylinder head ? Last edited by Reece_1; 22-09-2006 at 12:19. |

| Briskodian | Re: Fabia 1.2 sparkplug access!! Hi, I would still like to know how to remove the coilpacks. Do I lift them out one by one and if so how does one grip the individual coilpack for removal, or do I simply unbolt their carrier and lift all three as a whole??? Waiting eagerly for a decent reply, Charles |

The coil packs pop up individually, its not rocket science, quite easy. | |
