Volkswagen Golf - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Golf 5K1, MK 6, Golf 6, Golf VI - Years 2008-2012
Part: Diesel filter
Operation: How to replace the diesel filter on a Volkswagen Golf VI series

To change the diesel filter on a Volkswagen Golf VI series, once the hood has been opened it is necessary to identify the diesel filter, which has a flange with 5 Phillips screws that can be easily removed. Once this is done, lift the lid with the four sheaths and leave it in place. With an extension wrench we also remove the screws that hold the filter container at the bottom and carefully remove it from its housing, being full of diesel. We remove the old filter making it drip well. Empty the container from the residual diesel fuel - which we will pour into a watertight tank prepared for this use - remove the old o-ring from the closing flange of the filter container and replace it with the new one, making sure that it adheres well. We reposition the container in its housing by fastening the screws well with the extension wrench. We insert the new filter and reposition the flange cover which we will close well with its 5 screws. Accelerate the car so that the filter can fill up again and the job is done.
