WTB: N54 spark plug tool [Melbourne]

As per title, looking to purchase spark plug tool.

Also, I changed my spark plugs about a year ago... would they be in for a change after 10,000km on a tuned n54?

I ask this because I've been getting rough cold starts which sound like misfiring. I have changed my coil packs already which improved the situation however am still getting 29E0 fuel mixture codes!

i've been running OEM plugs for the duration i've owned mine (20k kms), plus however long they were installed for the previous owner.

I've been tuned fairly aggressively and running high E content for the majority of those. I'd be surprised if youre experiences plug issues after only 10k kms..

Bout to change to NGKs this weekend.

I think it might be caused by the bosch plugs.. looking at changing back to OEM BMW ones to hopefully fix the issues

also, in regards to the socket, i have the one from the BMS website. Saved shopping around trying to find a thin walled socket, or shaving down an existing one.
