P0351 CEL DIY????

My 2013 BRZ now has about 80,000 miles and I'm getting a CEL for the ignition coil in cylinder 1. I intend to replace the coil myself but I CAN'T FIND ANY SORT OF DIY. I know it must exist but I'm just getting search results discussing the CEL and no concrete guides. Someone please link me? Thanks

You don’t really need a diy cylinder 1 is the passanger front so u have to take the injector ecu and fuel rail cover off to get to it. It’s really tight and frustrating but other than that is like a normal coil change

Knock yourself out, be patient, its a hard to reach place, but tell yourself that it is still the easiest to reach coilpack (driver side is literal hell).

1. Open Hood
2. Right front of car, unbolt sound tube and ECU as pictured in the above DIY
3. Reach down to the side of the engine, feel around for the black plastic thing that sits on spark plug you might be able to see it a little bit, you want the one near the front of the car, unclip harness by pushing on the tab you cannot see, use a 10mm to undo the bolt holding the coilpack, don't drop the bolt, pull on the coil pack should pop right off.
4. Reverse #3 then #2 then #1

If you've ever changed spark plugs it should be rather straightforward except it's harder to reach and see.

Bro, I just changed mine out on Saturday, there is a video on YouTube about 4 minutes long that shows you what you need to remove on both sides, watch it.
