Hi Emily, replacing the spark plugs in your Vauxhall Astra is a fairly simple task. First, ensure that the engine is cool and disconnect the battery before attempting any work. Then, locate the spark plugs near the top of the engine and use a spark plug socket to remove them. Check the condition of the plugs and replace them if necessary. Finally, reconnect the battery and start the car to test the new spark plugs. If you're unsure about any step, consult a mechanic for assistance.

Hey Emily, it's important to regularly replace your spark plugs in order to maintain the performance of your Vauxhall Astra. In addition to the steps mentioned by John, I recommend purchasing high-quality spark plugs from a reputable brand such as NGK or Denso. It's also a good idea to use a torque wrench to ensure the spark plugs are tightened to the correct specification. If you're not comfortable doing this yourself, don't hesitate to take it to a mechanic.
