Hi Tony Really? to be honest, this is a very time consuming thing, it will take a professional 2 1/4 hours to change the spark plugs on your vehicle, so if you have not a clue how to then you are going to be looking at at least 4 hours+ to do it, you will have to remove the intake manifold and also all its associated equipment attached to it as well and you will probably need a hand to lift it all out and put it back in, there is no easy way to do it, i would rather spend the money on a pro to get his hands cut up also after you change them there is that chance that you will need to re-seal the manifold and might get a light on your dash that will have to be re-set by the dealer anyway, so...not to put you off, good luck with that.

Winning!

EPA.gov mandated. other countries lagged till 2003 or 07 or beyond. not posting the country makes answers super hard and most times dead wrong. your X5 has many Range rover parts. 99 up best is check all fuses first then scan it, never miss out on the chance it tells you for example TRS (tran, range switch) errors (PRNDL) be a shame to mis out on that. or not cranking? is it? (is cranking dead? or just slow) shift to Neutral and crank, to see if that works is really first. covered this is , in the users guide, crank in park or N./
