In this tutorial, you will see how to replace the injectors in a Volkswagen Golf. First, wait for the engine to be completely cold, then open the bonnet and remove the air filter box by unscrewing each bolt. Next, remove the high-pressure fuel line by unscrewing both the nut securing it to the pump and the two front bolts, then disconnect the sensor and all the injector connectors.

Once this is done, remove the metal cage of the first injector and extract it using a screwdriver or any equivalent tool. To install the replacement, follow the reverse procedure.
