DIY Spark Plug Replacement 2024 Audi Q5 Spark Plugs

In this complete DIY guide, I'll walk you through replacing the spark plugs on your 2024 Audi Q5 45 TFSI (2.0L turbo – EA888 Gen4 engine). This important 60,000-mile/6-year service restores smooth idle, improves throttle response, fixes misfires, and prevents coil damage. The job takes 45–90 minutes and saves you $400–$600 compared to dealer prices! Factory spark plug spec (DO NOT use anything else): Genuine Audi/VW NGK SILZKBR8E8S (laser platinum, iridium) – Part #06M905606F Gap: 0.028" (0.7 mm) – pre-gapped from factory, do NOT adjust Torque: 22–23 Nm (16 ft-lbs) – critical! Tools you'll need: 5/8" thin-wall spark plug socket (essential – regular sockets will crack the porcelain) 3/8" ratchet + 6" and 12" extensions T30 Torx bit (engine cover & coil bolts) 10mm socket (ground strap on some models) Torque wrench (set to 23 Nm) Dielectric grease & anti-seize (optional but recommended) Shop vac or compressed air Timestamps: [00:00] Introduction and tool size (10mm wrench) [00:38] Removing the connector lock clips [00:59] Providing slack to the wiring harness [01:41] Removing the ignition coil [01:56] Removing the spark plug (5/8 spark plug socket) [02:38] Installing the new spark plug (Hand tightening) [03:04] Torquing the spark plug (20 Nm) [03:24] Reinstalling the ignition coils [03:39] Reconnecting the electrical clips [04:05] Reattaching the ground wire and final tightening Pro tip: Do this job when the engine is cold!
