Default Spark plugs?

How hard is it for me to put spark plugs in? I am not very knowledable about car stuff. Or how much would it cost me to get a machanic to do it? I've already purchased the plugs.

Great write up over @ Audi World for that, pretty straight foward.

http://www.audiworld.com/tech/eng.html

Look under the A6 section for an article called: "Spark Plug Swap"

It really helps to post what motor you have, the 2.8 engine is gonna be much easier than the 2.7T for instance.

I have the 2.7 engine...I also do not have the socket tool to take out the spark plugs...Is it an expensive installation?

Hey-Hey-Heeeeeeeeeeeeey... I mean excuse me. I am driving a A6 4.2L and removing the air box kick my "Donkey", so I am all eyes on this post!

I am new to Audi and to this forum, so I really could use all the help that I can get from you "Subject Matter" experts.

Thanks for the post about the plug swap. It just made my day to hear that someone else is using a hanger to close their air filter box... Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!

What is mentioned above is MENTALLY RETARDED...........sorry, but there are better ways.......

Good advice..................but have you ever tried a magnet............telescoping magnets are sold everywhere and is exactly how I got my plugs out of myb A6..2.8...............................Some people never figured out how to eat nutritiously and ultimately vanished!

What makes it even more "RETARDED" is you replied, "Genius". Give a pet a name, educate it and then send it out into the world! Ding-Ding... THAT IS YOU, "DONKEY BOUY!"

Get back on the porch, and have a "Freeze Pop" or some Tang...shooooooooo fly!

As far as your Magnet Trick.... You can....shove it right back to the cashier, and asssssssssssssssk for your money back[:@]

That is my time...Thank you... God bless....

Hey... Hey smart guy! [sm=WTFsgign.gif]is a A6 Quattro Audi or IDUA ORTTAUQ 6A?

I could say something, but I am just going to let it lay... I think it is all about interpretation....

Like the comparison of you and a fly, or the name Richard....

I really like you! Wanna build a Clubhouse...

That is my time... Thank you.... God Bless...
