Hi Sorello,

Having changed the sparking plugs on the right-hand bank myself I'm with the garage and Tim on this one.

You either have to remove the manifold chamber which involves about fifteen disconnections or take off the windscreen wipers and remove the scuttle cover to reach the plugs through a removable panel after unscrewing the plug-top ignition coils in a restricted place! It's quite simply a painful job. Fortunately the original triple electrode plugs last well beyond the service schedule period.
