Professional grade spark plug socket from Germany for the discriminating MINI owner seeking high quality tools. Designed to fit the new bi-hex pattern of the factory spark plugs.  Sold each. 

Use this socket for the 'right tool' for the job! The spark plugs on the MINI are recessed deep in the cylinder head and requires a deep thin-walled socket. The spark plug themselves are 12-point bi-hex pattern where a standard 6-point hex socket will not work.

2007-2013 R56 MINI Cooper and Cooper S Hardtop
2008-2014 R55 MINI Cooper and Cooper S Clubman
2009-2015 R57 MINI Cooper and Cooper S Convertible

14mm Bi-Hex deep socket (12-point), 3/8" drive, 'narrow body' with a magnetic ring to retain the spark plug. The magnet never wears out unlike the rubber rings that shrink over time and lose retention.  We recommend a 'locking' extension to get the socket off the spark plug after you torque the plug.

Torque spark plugs to 23 + 3 Nm or 16.9 + 2.2 ft-lbs (unlubricated).

Quality Spark Plug Socket for the MINIs using the new 14mm Bi-Hex spark plugs. Slender design to fit the tight spark plug tubes.  Sold each.

Question:
Car is a 2016 Cooper 2 door with the 1.5L 3 cylinder. the description shows it fits the R56 2016, but the search box shows it does not fit I did see another socket, but it was not available. will this socket fit the plugs on the 2016 R56?
Answer:
Yes, the G2NME3008 socket will work with the spark plugs on your 2016 F56 Cooper Hardtop. If you remove the 'may car' setting, you should be able to order it.

I corrected the setting on the part so it should work correctly after the next update in a couple hours.
