The leaves are driving my ocd nuts!
Is that penetrating oil u are spraying into each spark plug hole?
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! Simply because of age &
mileage… sure, could not hurt and can be considered as smart preventative
maintenance. On the other hand, they might be good for quite a while
longer. Most of my customers don’t want to pay for something that ain’t
broke.
Great vid. What did you use to pull the coils?
Do you have a video showing how to install the new spark plugs? I’ve been
unsuccessful in finding one. Thanks. Great video BTW.
Hi, thanks for watching & taking the time to comment! At the 3:34 mark you
can see a sticker on top of the valve cover… the engine code is printed
on there.
Awsome. Done deal going to change them. Cant hurt. Thanks for reply. really
helpfull.
Cleaner looking engine bay and room for other things off to the side.
No, just some compressed air to blow any debris out of the plug hole.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
Hi, I use a Hazet filter socket (2169)… watch my 2.5l oil change video.
You might be able to use channel lock pliers with a rag around the filter
housing… only tightened to 25Nm, so it should pop free somewhat easily.
fucking germans, why they hide the air filter under all that shit.
Great video, thank you. I will try it this spring as I like working on the
car.
Thanks for replying. I’ve subscribed to your channel.
Do you need the ignition coil removal tool? I
Great Video, im about to do it next week. I have a 2009 rabbit w/ 84kmiles.
Havent been done yet. I dont mind putting extra care into my VW. Do you
recomend i put new coils since im changing the plugs. I guess it cant hurt.
Feedback is welcome.
Do you know what type and size the oil wrench has to be? I have a 2010
jetta 2.5 thanks
Thanks I already see it, but I have buy like 3 oil wrench and none of them
worked. I will try to buy that one and I hope that I can change the filter.
Thanks and I subscribed good videos.
wheres the replacing video??
The tool is not needed but can make it easier to grab a hold of the coils.
You can find the tool on eBay, look for T40039.
As mentioned below… there is no need for an “Installation Video” since it
is the reverse of removal. Torque the spark plugs to what it says in the
Service Manual… you can apply a little bit of anti seize compound to the
threads if you like.

I’ve seen worse looking Domestic Engine Bay designs! 🙂
Hi exo. How do I know wich type of engine I have ? cbua, cbta ?
No, but it makes it easier to grab and hold the coils.
I also use the same tool on TDI’s and on the spin-on filters of the old
1.8, 2.0 and 2.1 liter engines… I think vw kept the filter size the same
so 1 tool covers more engines. Thanks for subbing!
This is a pretty simple procedure… remove and then replace (install).
Like the title says: Removing. Once you have the old parts out, you install
the new parts… no further video needed.
