Engine Coil clip How to unplug it Q:

[kjoyes]

hi i am wondering how you unplug the coils from the car.
there is clip that is attached to a metal bracket it does slide a little, but there is no where to pinch to release it from there. I need to replace a coil.
(not the end that hooks to the spark plug the other end )

There is a bracket on each side which holds the set of clips for each coil. They are on each side closest to the firewall and are slightly above the coils as far as height. For the Passenger side, if you remove the airbox/bend the piping you can get better access to it.

Passenger side (with the blue, white, green connectors)


Drivers side


While your doing this job, I would suggest looking at the condition of all the coils and applying dielectric grease to the insides of the coils

so how do you unclip them from the bracket?

i figured, how to remove the coil wire clip from the metal bracket, it is really easy actually! it just seams hard.
