Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This spark plug is designed for specific engine codes including N14B16AB, EP6DT, EP3C, N18B16A, and N16B16A. It is compatible with various BMW, PEUGEOT, CITROËN, and MINI models such as the BMW 1 Schrägheck (F20), PEUGEOT 308 SW I (4E_, 4H_), CITROËN C4 Picasso I (UD_), and MINI Clubman (R55). Always verify fitment using your vehicle's VIN or by checking the owner's manual against the cross-reference part numbers like 12120034098, 12120034677, and others listed.
Installation: Installation requires care. Ensure the engine is cool. Use a spark plug socket and a torque wrench. The recommended tightening torque is between 15 Nm and 25 Nm. Overtightening can damage the cylinder head, while undertightening can lead to a poor seal. Ensure the spark plug is seated correctly before tightening.
Care: Spark plugs are wear items and are not typically serviced. They should be inspected during routine maintenance intervals as recommended by your vehicle manufacturer. If fouled or damaged, they should be replaced.
