Another great tutorial; replaced the filter right after cleaning the injectors. Followed both of your videos to get the jobs done.

I lube the seals with fuel during install, too. fuel-soaked rag wipe the new seals. Never had a problem. I don't put the fuel back in the tank. It's good fire starter for the trash burn barrel! :) I never had removed the cannister on my 06 ... but seeing the "sludge" drain from yours I may do that ... I do run bioDiesel quite frequently so hopefully that's reducing the amount of this contamination. I'll check at my next service which I do every 10K with an IDI kit for my BRM engine ... engine oil, fuel, cold air intake, and cabin air filters. Every 10K miles. arrived here ISO a good how to video to show my kid who is getting this car. Thanks. well done.

I had a 1989 Golf diesel and a 92 jetta diesel. On both of those car I found a drain valve on the bottom of the fuel tank so any water could be drained off. Water is heavier than fuel and it goes to the bottom of the tank. Thanks for the video. I loved it.

I've never changed my fuel filter before, I've had this car for about 8 years now. Had really hard time pulling old (made in chekoslovakia) filter out, ended up dislodging and pulling out the tube in the middle. To reinstall the new one, it was going hard as well, new gaskets around the filter opening were really tight. Also was hard to put the lid back, with new o ring...had to push in down in place by tightening the screws, one at a time, little by little. Will try to replace this filter more often now. Also cleaned EGR valve.

Всем привет! На основе опыта хотел дать несколько советов:. 1. Если вы осушили стакан фильтра то, чтобы избежать попадания воздуха в систему нужно налить дизель в стакан, или 3-4 минуты путем включения-выключения зажигания прокачать систему. Если запустить двигатель быстрее, то сухой фильтр начнет впитывать дизель и появится воздушна пробка с топливной системе. 2. На некоторых топливных фильтрах очень тугие резиновые кольца в центральном отверстии, чтобы облегчить установку такого фильтра нужно смазать моторным маслом центральную колбу на которую ставиться фильтр.

Curious of the priming part. not sure why that is particularly needed. I'd simply leave the diesel in there, and place the new filter in it. perhaps not a VW recommended option, yet not sure how there could be any adverse effect. thoughts on that??
@bighunterman778 жыл бұрын
you should drain all the crap whenever you replace any diesel fuel filter...most have drains on the bottom for this...this car doesn't... at any rate, you need to prime it(as in get the housing full of fuel) before starting, so you don't run the injectors dry, and then need to re prime them...which would take a while longer than three turns of the key

I do that too. I guess it reduces wastefulness, and I don't have to worry about it being a little dirty, because anything that goes back in to the tank with it will be filtered out by the new filter anyways. Just my thoughts, though.

What is the name of the black part in the filter housing? My dad gave me his 2006 Mk5 tdi and said he broke the spring in the bottom when he last changed the fuel filter. What symptoms would this cause? Would it cause the CEL to come on and the engine to run rough, almost like it went into limp mode? Sometimes after the rpm's finally get up it will go but other times it will hardly move and smokes alot.
