BOGOF..
Daft question #1 - are spark plug spanners for 318 4 pots slimmer than standard spark plug spanners? if so what do you use if you don't have a BMW one?
Daft question #2 - would front sports seat from a 325i fit a 318 touring?
Namaste.

Hi J, regarding question 1, there are several plug-socket sizes across the range. the plastic tool kit in the boot lid is made to measure. So if it's been changed for a fresher one, the socket may be the wrong size.
You can buy a spark plug socket to suit in any halfords or similar, but you may need to go a dealer to get one to fit the toolkit, they are not expensive.

You'll be hard pushed to find one of those in a touring! Tool roll inside the LH 'boot' door.SGP wrote:Hi J, the plastic tool kit in the boot lid is made to measure.

I kinda read around that & figured it would be in the boot somewhere
