you definitely dont know what you are talking about but all i needed was a visual demonstration to see what kind of labor was involved. having vacuum issues with my passat.
Do you need to take off the valve cover in order to take off the manifold? I want to try replacing the PCV hoses but I don't really have any those tools to get at those tight angles with the manifold on.
What about the fuel injectors? It seems like they were already taken out. If you take them out don't you need to replace them (i've heard they shouldn't be exposed to humidity/moisture but I'm not sure if this is true)
I haven’t had a problem yet, it doesn’t mean that humidity wouldn’t affect it. It certainly wouldn’t hurt to put them in a Ziploc bag with desiccant in it. I have to do a little research to see what other people are saying about it. Thanks for your thoughts.
@@livefree6878 I'm looking at a 2014 vw passat 1.8t with 91k miles. The car has a p2014 code and I plan on getting it smoked at a mechanic. My question is, would this deter you from buying the car? Dealer is taking 500 off price for me to deal with it, and from what I read it can be a fairly cheap fix. Do you think this is a bad sign as to the cars reliability?
@@ozzymoncrief1554 all these VW audi have complex vacuum systems that deteriorate rather fast. fix it yourself and learn the car and/or replace the hoses with silicon or better
I am glad you’re not working on my car my friend never pull the valve cover off and do work all you need to do is drop something down in there and you’re up shits creek and you keep saying take the exhaust manifold bolts out that’s not the exhaust manifold that’s the intake manifold you’re working on
