SL320
As a newbie I have some simple questions about my 1998 SL320 V6, so I'm sure you'll be able to help.....
1 is this model fitted with a code reader socket and if so where is it?
2 what tool is needed to remove the spark plugs? The hole looks very small compared with my memory of plug sockets I have known!
And does anyone have any recommendations about spark plugs? brand? type? etc. Is this a job for a reasonably competent amateur?
3 If I have a misfire, would I know given the 6 cylinders? One guy I spoke to said it was misfiring; another said he couldn't hear it. Is there a way to check with the right kit?
Thanks a lot
Looking forward to any responses
Rick
 
It had a 32pin diag socket under the bonnet.

Bosch plugs from Euro Car Parts

A Star diag session will help with this.
