Can someone please tell this novice where the plugs are located so that I can change them? Also, half of my radio display lights have gone out very symetrically. Anything I can do? Getting a creak in the front end as the car dips. Any suspension thoughts? Thank you.

    The other post has described where the plugs are located.

    However, why do you want to change them? Given unleaded gas and electronic systems, plugs easily go as far as the manufacturers recomended interval. I think the manual says 50K miles?

    Plugs: Remove screws on black plastic cover on top of engine using torx wrench, remove bolts securing each coil, lift out coil and you will see the plugs recessed into the head.

    Radio: On my S90 I have the light out for 3 buttons under the volume knob, probably 1 bulb for all. I plan to remove radio and take off front and see what kind of bulb it needs, then replace. Before removing radio make sure you have the security code.

    Suspension: Not sure but could be a bushing, they will groan and creek when worn. Others may have suggestions. How many miles?

      Suspension: My 960 with 100K miles has been creaking for the last 6 months. I've determined it is the inner front rubber bushings that have torn and need replacing. I've got the parts and tools but it is too cold right now. (My unheated garage has been below freezing here in MA for many weeks!) Ill live with it until warmer weather.
