Thank you for taking the time to put this video together. I had built my own Spulen kit out of Home Depot hoses and what not. Nice to be able to see what a professional kit looks like
My pleasure! Nice, I like the creativity lol. Thanks for watching the video!
Creative idea but looks fugly as hell!
@@RTHMedia how did you get the brake boost hose top piece out and back in? I saw that you mentioned it and you put it back in. But is there a way to do it properly? I’ve heard it can break easily and you need to be careful. I’m going to be deleting mine sometime soon. So anything would help!
Good tutorial, i have small hands and a small 1/4” ratchet was able to get the pump off without taking the shifter apart, just put her into reverse and you get all the space you need! Hope this helps anyone else! Also, the V2 plate is much nicer than just the flat one you got in this video.
Where did you get the version 2? I see ECS carries a kit but is that v1 or v2?
I have a 2011 Golf. Owned it from 100 or so miles from the dealer and now has almost 150k. Twice the vacuum pump leaked, first time I had the dealer replace (pretty expensive since they add the estimate with removing the transmission, which is apparently how it is shown on the service manual). 2nd time, I did a reseal kit. It has started leaking again, I figured that I should've just done a delete to begin with.
After some time with this setup how are your brakes working vs the stock setup
at the 2:19 mark on the video there are 2 hoses dead centre at the bottom below the throttlebody. The one on the left I know connects to the plastic intake but where does the smaller one on the right connect? Can't figure it out to save my like. Thanks
Coolant. Ask me how I found out lol
Lessons learned: 1. Use the new supplied mounting screws (the old ones are too long). 2. Remove the hose bracket (held by 10mm screw on left hole). I ended up getting the IE block plate. Works well.
The only way of getting the IE block plate working was to totally remove the hose bracket for me...
the only issue with type of setup coming off the PCV valve is you will be sucking oil vapour in to the brake booster, not recommended.
Theoretically isnt the intake manifold pulling vacuum from the pcv and the brake booster? The only direction the potential residue will be traveling is down towards the intake, correct me if I'm wrong but I am also concerned for the same reason
Awesome video, I really learned a lot of things from this gracias compadre!
Just got a 2009 beetle 2.5 may daughters first car ! We did All new power stop drilled slotted rotors and pads and lines and fluid. New master cylinder. Now doing this. Gonna be awesome. Put a new kendood radio with rgb displays for her and kicker 6.5s. Sounds awesome. New led lights all around and some rgb mood lights on way. Taught my daughters to buy a clean used car for cash and then theres money left to modify it a bit vs some we know that got new cars on payments
Gotta keep the car mod culture alive. She didnt like the 2000 turbo stick beetle we got. I do. Cheap lil gocart😊
Great video, the vacuum pump consumes energy from the crankshaft so it takes power from the engine. It’s really just a useless part
So update. I installed my kit about a month and a half ago. At first all was good. Then about 3 weeks ago I spotted a leak in my garage, directly underneath the blockoff plate area. It began to leak more and more and last week I decided to go for the Integrated Engineering plate. I just switched them out today and found that sure enough, the gasket from the original kit was basically as good as Swiss cheese. I'll update on if this fixes the leak.
Gerritt Bloch did you use a gasket with the IE plate?
Renata Jasmiin Sanchez Purizaga It comes with an o-ring so that is what I used.
Gerritt Bloch my spulen kit leaks a lot of oil like yours, thats the reason the i buy this plate
Gerritt Bloch So do you recommend the IE kit over the Spulen kit?? Can you please give me an update? I need to delete my leaking vacuum pump and want to make sure I buy a delete kit that will last.
My IE plate leaked within 2 years but my window decal is still beautiful! I removed and added rtv gasket maker. My original install date was 04/2014 and it is still going strong. I bought hoses from Home Depot and made a custom Spulen kit setup because I had to. It is nice to have a professional option on the market!
This is my first time owning a vw jetta mk5 it has a 2.5 and I just bought the kit should I disconnect the battery I was told vw has very sensitive sensors
why did you do the delete??...what are you supposed to gain from it?...curios because i am getting a passat with the same engine
I think from taking air from the intake to the pcv and splitting off on a smaller diameter to the brake booster is creates a Venturi valve which is what creates vacuum.

Please correct me if I’m wrong.
Were you able to put the engine cover back on? I heard on some models once you install the delete kit the hoses won’t allow for the engine cover to go back on.
Question do you work on people’s cars, if so, are you able to install the kit in my car ?
Thanks so much for this man!
Why was it necessary to take the plate off? What do you have to do with the internals to remove the pump?
future62 I was just following the instructions that It came with, but when you take the plate off you can't pull the internals completely out, only slighlty. I think it just makes separating it from the engine easier.
You only need to take the plate off if it's an auto trans. You take the black plastic piece and align the groove of the metal piece to the bolt that's sticking out infront of the pump, or you won't be able to take it out.
first off nice vid kid, 2nd off i'm glad i got a manual & can skip alot of steps, 3 i'm glad i got a mk6 dont have to remove the battery as well
Thanks bro! Yea, I wish I got a manual. A lot of the maintenance is easier and the auto trans in these aren't super reliable.
Gonna third on the manual as well. I guess my wife can still drive it at least... Lmao
@@andymccloskey8039 🤣🤣 mine knows how to ride a motorcycle but not how to drive a manual
Is your transmission manual, auto, or auto w/ dsg? I hear that this vacuum pump removal is different depending on your transmission.
his looks to be an auto. with the manual you can see the gear selector and the tension cord underneath the battery tray. this install is typically easier on manuals, only because theres more room to work with
Thanks for the video, and taking time to make it.
How is the Spulen kit holding up? Any leaks? Also is your car auto or manual? Great video btw, thanks
zerOGr4vity 20 It's been working great! No leaks so far and no notices in brake performance. My car is automatic.
Ryan The Hawaiian autos are a bitch to remove vacuum pump on. When removing shift linkage nut, my tranny shifted into neutral and the car rolled back. I had to jump into it and slam on the brakes :)
@@FrostyCoug forgot the hill brake didn't yu
Some folks are having trouble putting back the engine cover likely due to the new thicker hose. Did your engine cover snap back in place without any issues?
johnim1 I actually don't have my engine cover on anymore, since I have a cold air intake, there is no need for it.
johnim1 play with the hoses. and wiggle them in. I had a slight glinche with it. but it turned out perfect
it's a tight fit, kinda have to force it down. I looked under to make sure none of the hoses were crimped.
Watch your video install the parts when I’m perfect everything works great your video is awesome
I fill like an oil catch is a must with this kit
tyler jenkins by the vacuum pump?
Has this improved your AC performance? was told I have a leaky pump, but this intrigues me as a potential fix instead of the $800 repair.
Would appreciate a response
Matt Dyer I haven't noticed any differences in my a/c system, I believe the vacuum pump is mainly there to provide a vacuum for the brake booster, I don't think it's related to the a/c system. I'm not 100% sure though.
Thanks - Concerned about general leakage in the area now, not due to a faulty pump, but a bad seal. I'll see if they can replace the seal instead of replacing the whole pump
Ryan, have you had any issues with the car you installed this kit on after the kits installation?
Adrian Cutter None so far👍
@@RTHMedia How bout now?
@@JoshDisher Still no issues🤙🏼🤞🏻
@@RTHMedia Excellent. Think I'm going with this kit for my 07 VW Bug convertible. Its sooooo tiny in there though. I hate working so cramped.
@@JoshDisher Yea I definitely recommend it! As long as you have some swivel attachments and extensions for your wrenches and a magnetic pickup tool it shouldn't be too hard👍🏻
i have a question, do you have a delay on the gearbox is like a 2 second delay from R to D or D to R? i just have that question just want to know if my car is ok
Jean paul Ferrer What do you mean by delay? is the delay in the car actually switching gears?
Ryan The Hawaiian yes
Jean paul Ferrer I believe that is normal, now that you mention it I usually wait a couple seconds to make sure the car has fully switched gears.
Any difference in the brakes? Or power of the car
Adam Hayes Everything feels the same, it's quite nice! The main difference is that the engine does become slightly quieter.
I just put the vacuum pump delete kit on my 2012 passat 2.5, i let it idle for a few, turned it off, went inside to clean up, came out to drive off & my "oil pressure low engine off" light came on. Did a fresh oil & filter change as well. Any suggestions. PLEASE HELP!!!
Barrack O Bow Tie Is there a bad deal between the engine and the block off plate? I don't know much about these things. The only thing I could think of would be a poor connection somewhere.
Ryan The Hawaiian i'm not sure, I've been asking around and no one seems to know why the light came on, and the few people I have seen that have deleted theirs have had no issues
Barrack O Bow Tie Yea, I honestly don't know what could have triggered it, unless that is just an issue that's particular to your car and year.
Ryan The Hawaiian Yeah, it just might be, everybody I seen that put this kit on, put them on Jettas Bettles Golfs etc., there was one guy who had the same car as mine and he said the same light was on in his car, and he had 2K miles on with the delete kit & no problems. I kind of want to figure out why the light was on so I can put the delete kit back on, because the car felt so much better with it
Barrack O Bow Tie It must be some sort of sensor or something.
Hello is this a TDI ?
I don’t think that would work with my set up
you should look into getting the i.e block off plate it's 70 bucks i believe.works better then the one that comes with the kit.
t glizzy I've heard about that plate from a few people. I'm going to stick with this one for now and if it fails I will get the IE plate.
I.E plate doesn't come doesn't come with all of the hoses to complete the job. Also Spulen redesigned their plate supposedly addressing the issues of their original one. It looks totalky different now. That makes me kinda glad I put this job off till recently
Hi Ryan, I know if works in automatic transmission either?
I looked at some of his other videos, he drives an automatic. I’ve seen lots of YT comments and VW forums that say that this delete kit works perfectly fine with time, the vacuum pumps in this engine were a completely unnecessary part
You didn't remove the whole shift linkage to get the pump out?
Nope, not sure how much easier it makes it.
Why need to install this kit, how was it after installation?
Andy Lee I went with this kit because it was cheaper than a new vacuum pump
Did you get any power steering lights come on after installing the kit? Thanks!
Gerritt Bloch nope, no lights at all
Yea it was on right after I finished but after driving around everything turned off and she runs amazing!
Gerritt Bloch Hmm that's interesting. Same I haven't had any issues.
Ryan The Hawaiian for sure man thanks! This was a great video that helped me all the way. Just that I'd add also that I needed to do a coolant flush and I decided to do it while installing the delete kit. It allowed me to move the top coolant hose out of the way. It gave me lots more space. Just a thought for anyone else taking on this project.
Gerritt Bloch I think I need to do a coolant flush too, just need to get around to doing it.
Will a shop install this vs a new pump?
If you find the right shop I'm sure they would. Not a difficult install so I don't see why not.
excellent
Will this kit work with a 2013 Jetta 2.5L?
I imagine it should work, but I'm not sure if they changed the stock design on the 2013 vacuum pump. Definitely check online first.
Please answer 🙏 do u get a check engine light w tht kit?
Josue Gallardo Nope, no lights came on due to the install of the kit👍
There is nothing electrical which measures any of the vacuum. But, if you had a leak off the PCV to atmosphere, this may be the only cause of a CEL.
I Also have a vacuum pump leak is it a must fix thing ?
Sergio Benitez I'm not really sure if it's absolutely necessary or more of just an annoyance.
IF you don't mind an oil leak, it isn't that bad. Though, if you let the oil leak onto the starter, which is right below it, you could be replacing hat for a few hundred $$$.
وشكرا جزيلا
Where was the leaking coming out from ? What’s it leaking from the bottom of the car or was the leak coming out from the actual vacuum pump? My car is leaking from here . th-cam.com/video/MxTSzUtYWlA/w-d-xo.html
Sorry, TH-cam does'nt notify me of every new comment. The leak was coming from the bottom of the vacuum pump, where it meets the engine. I assume that it was the seal that went bad and caused the leak. it would leak onto the top of the transmission and then flow off of that onto the ground.
FIX THAT DAMN TICKING.
What's the ticking I have it
I heard it was the high pressure fuel injectors. My Rabbit has had that noise for about 180,000 miles
Will this work in a 2012 VW Passat SE 2.5L?
Yes it will. And the kit has been improved since this original video was made.
