To remove an ignition switch from this car start by disconnecting the battery ground strap and taking off the steering wheel. The nut that holds it on is under the BMW emblem in the center. Mark the stud that and the steering wheel next to it so it will be easy to realign during installation. To take the steering wheel off the key must be in the run ( unlocked ) position. Next remove the steering column covers by unscrewing the four screws accessible from below it. Carefully remove the lower then upper plastic covers. Be extra careful getting the upper cover off the locking cylinder. The ignition switch is directly opposite the locking cylinder facing to the left of the car. Use a small flat head screw driver to pry the plastic tabs holding it on open then pull off the switch. Unplug the wire connector and plug the new connector from your new switch. Push the new switch on and reinstall all the parts in reverse order.

To get to the spark plugs: # Remove sound reduction or ignition coil covers as needed # Open control box cover # Disconnect ignition coil electrical connector by lifting up plug lock # Remove ignition coil by pulling straight up # Use the necessary tools to remove the spark plugs There are six plugs, and the factory plugs that come with the car are most likely the NGK BKR6EQUP (laser platinum, 4-ground electrode) ... or if it's not the platinum version, the BKR6EKUB (a dual-ground electrode, semi-surface discharge type).
