I am getting ready to replace the spark plugs in my wife's 2000 V40. It appears that the OEM plugs are Champion. Should I stick with the Champs or switch to ? Any recommendations welcomed. Also any tips on installation appreciated. What are the gap specificatons?

This is the first time I have worked on the V40. Car has 30,000 miles.
Changed air filter. Have yet to do an oil change. Dealer has been doing them so far. Haven't crawled underneath to look.....how difficult is it to reach the air filter?

Would certainly appreciate any DIY tips for basic maintenance.

Is anybody else having problems with the drivers side shoulder harness strap "sawing" its way through the plastic door pillar cover?

Has anybody added an anti-roll bar to the V40?

Thanks to everybody for your help.
