Operation: How do you adjust the valves on the Volkswgen Golf?

To be able to adjust the valves of the Volkswagen Golf, you need to open the hood and access the engine compartment. Here, it will be necessary to loosen the special screws that secure the plastic cover under which the camshaft will be located. Once the cover has been removed, you will have access and will be able to check the adjustment of the valves with a feeler gauge. With a socket wrench, it will be possible to tighten or loosen the valves following the recommended values; once all the valves have been adjusted correctly, the plastic cover can be placed and secured.
