How to do Full service on most modern VW 2.0 TDI diesel engine cars | Passat B8 Oil + filter change

here we show you how to service your diesel VW car

When I change the fuel filter I don’t add diesel, if you turn the ignition on the fuel pump primes the system for about 3 seconds, by turning the ignition on and off a few times the filter self primes, it saves having to mess about with diesel.

[@Nypartcannon]

The idea you provide may work but this guys method is to reduce the chance of an air lock

[@coolpot]

ai ya shouldnt run the pump dry like that really. its just strain isnt it. for the sake of adding a bit of diesel i prefer this method

[@TheRhinoGoss]

Stop it

[@Gr8boy]

Use diagnosis for this job Pump primes with diag Tools

[@alexanderharispuru1465]

Hi, the prime thing with the key worked on older b6 passat not on b7 and b8, if you dont have vcds you can fill the canister with diesel like he did.. but if you change injectors or fuel rail you really want to prime the lines.if not your high pressure pump can get dry and thats not so good

[@rileysanimalfarm3039]

Thanks for taking the time to do this. At least I know what to expect and how to find everything

[@johnnoonan5802]

Good man ur self i did mine last saturday,, it was good to have it done before the weather breaks , i used Castrol 5w --30 , its amazinng how VW went back and is using paper fiters ,Toyota is doing the same on some of thier engines also , i prefer the cannister type filter by the way im 61 yrs and still flying it no pit no lift just hit the ground like the pope and get on with it cheers for now

Thanks for watching

Thanks for the video, very comprehensive. I guess you flush engine with a low cost oil (5W30) and then use a better quality oil like MOBIL1 ESP, right?

[@rmc5278]

Up side down oil filter housing , well done vw .

[@ORileysAutos]

Hate these upside down types. BMW and Mercedes got the right idea up top.

[@IIIRAYDENIII]

@@ORileysAutos Yeah, Audi does too.

[@andrewdarnley4608]

I have a Passat Alltrack B8 and would really like to pay the VW dealership, here in Australia, to actually get rid of the dirty oil like you do. Maybe I'd be able to ward off the dreaded upper carbon sludge blocking the air intake valves starting at 60,00km.

[@caseygauldin5724]

Hey. I have a 2013 VW Passat TDI. Is this full service the same as what you did? Also how often are you suppose to change Air Filter and Fuel Filter should it be done with every oil change?

[@JeremiahOBrien-tt6xy]

fuel and air filter every 30-35k as far as I know

[@DivljaVoda]

Thank you very much, say, how much nM are you using for oil pan screw and oil filter cover? And how much liter oil do you need for the oil change?

[@ORileysAutos]

Both are around 25nm and oil is around 4.6L Always check with your part shop who supply the oil and they will sell you the correct amount.

[@huertas47488]

Hi! How many liters do you need to fill the diesel filter? thanks!

[@paultraynorbsc627]

Cabin filter a bit of a pain 👍

[@darsot100]

I just want to know that is it necessary to prime the fuel pump with vcds because you haven't shown in the video, i have the same 2015 car and i want to change my fuel filter as well but I'm a bit sceptical that i might damage the fuel pump.there are ao many threads online that say that one has to prime the fuel filter.

[@ORileysAutos]

Just do as I did in the video by filling the fuel filter housing with fuel after replacing the filter.

[@paultraynorbsc627]

Turn the ignition on don't start the car switch off ignition back on don't start car Half fill. The Fuel housing before putting filter in as filter will soak some fuel. Top up.slightly

[@nmcben]

Thank you so much - fantastic tutorial - I'll be doing mine soon.

@@ORileysAutos Great Video! Is the filter a two way? ...I.e... Can it be changed above and underneath? Thanks

Great video,you have shown how to do a service without going to a dealer and getting ripped off to the tune of nearly £400.CHEERS KEEP UP THE GREAT VIDS

[@tuxphilips2389]

This video is not great, stop say stupid things...

[@MrZensoner]

How much oil did you filled up to wash out the engine after emptying the first time? by the way, great videos 👍🏻

[@ORileysAutos]

We completely filled it to the correct level.

[@MrZensoner]

@@ORileysAutos oh really? so then you need afull losd of extra oil for the "flushing process"?

[@ORileysAutos]

@@MrZensoner it's not completely necessary but we buy our oil in 20L drums so it's cheaper

[@devscally]

Can anyone shed some light on what the small o-ring is for that comes with these oil filters? It has me paranoid every service that I can't find where it goes.

[@kevinhamill-on4wh]

It's the seal for the 13 mm sump screw

[@daveys]

There’s a little drain plug in the middle of the main 36mm oil filter socket. It’s for that.
