Remove the Engine Cylinder Head from an Audi TT

Model: Audi Tt 8N, MK 1 - Years 1998-2006
Part: Cylinder head

Do you want to remove the engine cylinder head from an Audi TT yourself? Let's see how to do it in this video. Pull the hood release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard and lift the front hood, securing it in place. You will find the coils near the plastic engine cover. Lift the plastic clip and disconnect the power cable, grasp the coil with your hands and rotate it to the right and then to the left until it comes out of the head. Use needle-nose pliers to disconnect all the connectors supplying electricity to the glow plugs. Unscrew the cylinder head bolts, then remove the cover from the engine block. Remove the various wiring on the head (disconnect the metal clips of the various hoses and the power connectors with pliers). Use a socket wrench or electric screwdriver to unscrew all the bolts from the engine head, and remove it along with the gasket.
