Long story short,
cylinder 7 spark plug somehow flew out and cracked a coilpack.

Ordered new parts, but now, the spark plug would not tighten anymore, not even a mm. After a couple of attempts, I realized there is no thread on the inside.

Searched for similar problems online, and I guess it happens, i am not the first one :)
There are even kits that help your repair everything, without taking apart heads.
Had anything like this happened to anyone? Trying to see what i should do now
