Hi all & Happy New Year: Could someone walk me through replacing the plugs in my, new to me 01 S60 2.4T. I have only replaced plugs in my Wrangler and the wifes Merc. Also the best plugs to use. Thanks JB

Either OEM pulgs or bosch platinums.
You have to remove the black top cover on the motor. (T-30 screws.)
Then you will need to remove the coil packs (10 MM)
The plugs are a 5/8 socket.

After that it's righty-tighty, lefty-loosey. Make sure that you properly gap the plugs also.

There is an air intake pipe passing over the spark plug cover. Does this have to be removed? Any thing else that I should know? Thanks again JB

Remove the 2 t-25 screws that hold the pipe to the motor. Then you can lift it up some to slide the cover out from under it.
