MK4 1.8T Engine Removal as fast as possible

Sick of the 40 minute uncoordinated engine pull guides on YT? Now you can stop spending 10 minutes skipping to the information you need instead of watching a guy turn a ratchet for 4 minutes straight every time there's a fastener that needs to come off.

[@Seriouslybadd]

Now time to watch this 100x to memorise it xD

[@chrstphrr]

Nice speed cut. 80% or better of what you showed applies to any of the other engines that can be in a mk4 too.

If only the rebuild could be that fast 😢

[@Winticket7]

I think I stick to the 1st method..

[@tyrusnorthcraft7542]

So you took the engine harness out with the engine correct?

[@thirdgeargrind8033]

Yes fastest to do it, disconnecting all the little sensors is super tedious when you can just disconnect 2 or 3 plugs for the entire harness.

[@steambuns2283]

hey man did u remove the cv shaft first then the 3 13 mil bolt? or the other way around, thanks

[@thirdgeargrind8033]

3x 13 first, to allow the spindle to be pulled forward to allow the room required to remove the axle.

[@steambuns2283]

@@thirdgeargrind8033 did u use a puller or some kind of tool to remove the 3x?

[@thirdgeargrind8033]

@@steambuns2283 No it should just unbolt from the top plate, and then the spindle should slide out of the control arm. You may need to hammer the end of the axle to get it free from the hub, if you do that make sure you have the axle nut on loose covering the threads to protect them from being damaged.
