hello everyone, i found the following and was wondering if anyone has used these specific tools for spark plug replacement. i do not have a number for the ratchet - anyone have a guess? seems like the factory likes them:

hi loren, thanks. your diy is such a great help when working on a new (to me) car. i have only had my new car for three months or so and still learning how to drive it! as far as working on cars; i am not the best mechanic, but can figure out many things. when the time comes for spark plugs i will inspect all the coil packs. for this try i am going to swap #3 and #2 and hope the code moves. is removing the muffler preferred?

hello everyone, so i have searched on this topic but would appreciate current information. my car '03 c4s, stock. 18K miles, florida car now in new england. i have put 6K on it myself with no troubles. car sat for 11 days in my garage while on vacation, thru a new england heat wave 95+. started it up today to warm it for oil change and once up to temp it began misfiring/running rough at low rpm. cel flashed then went steady and i got a bring for service indicator in display. limped home. read codes and got p0300 misfire detected, p0303 misfire cylinder 3. cleared codes, started up again and same two codes came back. bummer. came here for research. clearly there can be many reasons for these faults, but i was hoping for an easy one. appears a common failure is the coil packs. jacked it up, and took a look at #3 coil pack. nothing appeared to be cracked. bummer. i was going to swap #4 and #3 to see if fault followed coil pack, but #4 does not look real easy, and if the fault moves i need to take the failed one off anyway. new coil packs around $50, so should i just spring for a new one and try it? should i let it sit tonight and cross my fingers when i start it in the morning? should i use freeze spray on it to cool it and see if misfire stops? should i be more worried? help! __________________ 03 996 c4s 08 si coupe 99 540i six speed 84 audi gt coupe 73 saab ems
