My Ride: 09 M5 (E60) Interlagos blue, Silverstone interior, with cold weather package. Adaptive Xenon headlamps and adaptive brake lights, hud, comfort access. Comfort seats, basically fully loaded.
Default

I was wondering if anyone had ever changed the spark plugs on the M5 themselves? Have any idea how hard it is? and if any previous diy threads around? Also what about the fuel filter?
Thank you
Kevin

If you're comfortable with working on your car, then changing out spark plugs is nothing difficult. I've done it on my car (not an M though), but the only difference in that respect is you have 4 more plugs than I do.
