How to change the spark plugs on a VW Polo 2004?

I've had the engine cover/air filter off but cannot see where the spark plugs would go can anyone help me please?How to change the spark plugs on a VW Polo 2004?
Follow the black ignition leads to the plug caps and they will be under there. Spark plugs are always screwed into the top of the cylinder headHow to change the spark plugs on a VW Polo 2004?
Think you have coil packs on that. There might be 4 coil packs on top of the cylinder head (look like black little boxes bout 2'; square) with electrical connection plugs clipped to them. If so there will be 4 screws in each corner of the 4 packs (small might even be torque screws?)

Ignition off, remove electrical connectors, Unscrew the 4 screws and pull off the pack which will have black rubber tube like thing which is popped on to the spark plugs. Your plugs will be down 'da ole'! Remember you must gap the new plugs to the manufactures specs with a feeler gauge. Give the threads some copper slip grease to stop them ceasing in the head.



Failing that, if you still can't find them then your probably driving a diesel.
