2012 Cayenne S (v8) plug gap?
The internet is all over the place on this, what is the spark plug gap for a 2012 Cayenne S V8?
Thanks in advance

Never mind, the plugs are 4 posters so no need to worry about gap.
Just did plugs and coils and damnit one of the coil screws snapped in the threads. I am not sure if I should try to drill it out or something else. Pretty pissed… ![]() Thoughts

a lot of times you can just back the broken piece out with a screwdriver or sharp pick - they are not in there tight and being aluminum are easy to dig into

Thanks, turned into a pain in the arse, with great joy
![]() It was just under flush with the head so I couldn’t cut a grove into it. ![]() So I drilled into it, then tried my removal bit, to no luck ![]() Then I got the great idea I would sacrifice my smallest bit (13 splines I think, not sure what it’s called). Hammered it into the hole and was able to turn it out ![]() Got her all buttoned up and gave it back to a happy wife ![]()

i tighten those down with my fingers and that's it - they probably get a little tighter when i put the trim screws into them but they are usually pretty easy to remove that way - dumb design
