Really great video. A few small things which could make it perfect... 1. Could you show best way to fill the fuel filter with diesel in order to prime it without diagnostics please? Or will running the pump by switching on the ignition a few times work? (without turning the engine over) 2. What is the recommended oil for this motor? (rookie question I know) 3. Turning the music down a bit in the edit a bit would improve the vid
Thanks for the feedback. I'll keep that in mind for future videos. The oil grade is shown in the video. It shows the VW requirement. But if you supply the reg number to your part supplier they should be able to look up the required oil for your engine. I'll do a separate video just concerning the fuel filter next chance I get and I'll cover the different ways of priming. Just cycling the ignition on doesn't provide enough pressure to fully prime the system. Thanks for watching!
@@MTMMotorServices Great video very informative and helpful. Just wondering if you ever managed to do a video on priming the fuel filter without the engine diagnostic tool? Cheers
question next to the fuel filter there is another silver tube what is that is that another fuel filter in line with the big one you replaced and if so when should that small one be replaced
So the only issue I see having if I do my T5 is the replacement of the fuel filter. I dont have that electronic tool to pump the diesel in the new filter before starting. Is it some other way???
@@vivauruguay you could fill the filter with diesel before fitting and also cycle the ignition a few times as it engaged the fuel pump for a short time to prime the system but when the filter is empty, this often isn't enough to prime the full amount
@@MTMMotorServices thanks for the replay. Keep the good work. My next proyect is to learn how to replace the twin turbo. Last time it went I was charged 5k dollars to rebuilt and replace here in Australia which I thought was a bit expensive but that's what it is.
Thanks for the reply, definitely think people would be interested in a review video, I’m in the market for a new scanner and think the 906bt or the mk908 will be the one. Look forward to the review and more vids 👍
Each cycle of the priming system takes around 30 seconds. We usualy run that atleast 3 times to make sure. Initial crank might take a little time to start up but shouldn't be excessive.
What if you don't have the Diagnstic tool, how do you prime the pump? Does it matter if you use the wrong oil, ie for DPF but you don't have one? I was going to use Castrol Edge PRO SW30. Thank you for the clear and concise video.
If you don't have a diagnostic tool, you also won't be able to reset the service indicator. But to prime the filter, you can fill it with clean diesel by pouring it in the top.. This can be messy and be sure you use clean diesel and not diesel ripped out from the old filter. If you call your local parts company they should be able to tell you what oil they list as a suitable replacement. Hope this helps.
one of the best videos on the servicing i have seen to date.Thanks
You did a neat and nice work, accurate in every detail.
instaBlaster...
Great detail and instructions!!!
Thanks! Glad you like it. Just looked at your chanel. Awesome stuff!
thank you for this instruction!
Thank you for your vedio.
Could you give specification of disel filter?
Hi there.

Hi mate
What diagnos equipment you use and software versions.
So the only issue I see having if I do my T5 is the replacement of the fuel filter. I dont have that electronic tool to pump the diesel in the new filter before starting. Is it some other way???

Anyone's else think Matt Jones was doing a build lapse?
Helpful, thanks
Hi what are your thoughts on the autel MS906BT? Are you likely to do a review video on it?
I like the 906bt it's my main go to for diagnostics at the workshop. Yea, I can do a review if that's something people would like to see

@@richardbaker8248 thanks for the feedback. Got a few interesting videos planned and I'll definitely add that to the list.
Hello, what is the amount of oil? 7 L
How long to prime the fuel pump, 30s enough?
