A word a caution. I own a 2010 Golf MK6 2.5L CBUA. My expansion valve came overtorqued from the factory. It was extremely hard to remove the bolts. When I removed the expansion valve it bent the pipes and threw the pipes out of alignment. I know this because comparatively it was easy to pull the expansion valve from a used one. I should have stopped there and replace the threaded bracket, bolts, and tried to bend the pipes to restore alignment. Instead I kept forcing the bolts and ruined the pipes, bracket, and bolts further. Now I have to remove the dash to replace the evaporator, expansion valve, bracket, and bolts. By the way, the bolt is a M5- .8x35mm. You can find it at home depot. I believe it is a grade 8. I found a grade 12.9. Another tip, to remove the threaded bracket you need to remove the foam around the expansion valve by cutting around the pipes. It will make it possible to move the threaded bracket sideways to free it. My manual says the torque specs for the screw is 5NM. I guess it makes sense because bracket is steel and the bolt is grade 8. But I would caution against torquing that hard. DON'T use a pry bar, picks, screw drivers and other tools that would distort the fragile aluminum pipes or you will have to remove the dash to replace the evaporator! It should be easy to slide the exapansion valve on the pipes and the screws should easily align to the threaded bracket. If you are forcing it, you need to realign the pipes.
Great video, nicely explained. What are the dimensions of ring seals? I would like to replace all the seals, on the compressor, in front and behind the expansion valve. Are the dimensions the same in all positions, I need 3 o-rings for the larger pipe and 3 o-rings for the smaller pipe??
6:15 on my Saab, the two screws holding the valve to backing bracket were completely rusted and seized, had to drill them out, yank the mangled valve and twist out the remaining two threads with channel locks. 1/10 would not repeat
Ahoj neviem si dať rady skusim sa ťa opitať mam tdi 81kw octavia1 a mam unik chladiacej kapaliny po 100km asi 2,3 deci ale neviem kde presne tipujem na radiator len jeto fuška a nechcem to zbitočne rozoberať ale zahmlieva sa mi čelne sklo take mastné je ta preto si mislim že bi to mohol biť radiator čo povieš? Diki za odpoveď!
Mne tieklo z dvoch miest. 1 priruba v ktorej je vsadeny snimac teploty kvapaliny. 2 tesnenie vodnej pumpy. Obi dve som nasiel vizualne. Treba zohriat motor nech sa vytvori tlak vo vode. Potom vypnut a hladat kvapky vody.
@@golfwagen4173 Suhlasim s tebou deklle mám dole už mesiac a snažim sa to odsledovať ale nič pod motorom sucho sem tam trosku vody ale to klima, preto si myslim že kurenie.Rozoberiem a uvidíme aj keď sa mi dotoho moc nechce, potom dam vedieť ,ale za odpoveď ďakujem!!!
Ináč,som rád že takto pomahaš ludom ušetrit korunky😁 v servisoch by za tieto opravy nenormalne peniaze pitali.Klobúk dole že sa ti chce tolko rozoberať aj mna to baví ,ale nie až tak často😁😁😁
VCDS has Measuring Blocks in the HVAC module. One of the MBs is BAR which is nothing more than the high side pressure divided by 14.7psi (atmospheric pressure). VCDS will report BAR that is too high or too low. Until the BAR is => 9.0, the condenser fan will not turn on.
I own a golf car like you, I love it very much, but I have a problem when I start the car, the engine shakes and the car speed fails, knowing that my car is a Golf 5 2L

how tight do you pull the screws? Svaka cast😎

Did this on my jetta brand new Oh rings and it still leaks from there.
Wow

Ce simptome are acea valva ?
Hello golf wagen, what error code from your Vcds have you with this problem ? ;)
VCDS has Measuring Blocks in the HVAC module. One of the MBs is BAR which is nothing more than the high side pressure divided by 14.7psi (atmospheric pressure). VCDS will report BAR that is too high or too low. Until the BAR is => 9.0, the condenser fan will not turn on.
