This helped me a lot ! A tip to connect the pipes if you’re alone is to use hose clamps on either side on the pipes so you get a leverage point to bring those pipes together. Be mindful and not clamp on the wider part on the car side pipe but put the clamp just behind it.
Great video! I especially like the recommendation to cut the old core pipes. I didn't, used a screwdriver, and the firewall pipes flanges bent them so they would not seal. A 1-day easy job turned out to be a 3-day headache. One recommendation is, Blow compressed air through the firewall pipes in the engine compartment. There will be a lot less coolant to spill.
Hello! Well explained! How about a video with how to clean up the dirtiness on the entire installation because my heater is stuck with dirt and if I will replace it, it will get stuck again
Hi, I think I need to replace my heather core as well as I only have hot air blowing from the left side (Driver side) of the car and I know the core is clogged with dirt that came from the silica bag that is placed in the expansion tank. However, doesn't this require a system flush, change the radiator, and the expansion tank as well? it seems logic to me or are there other opinions as well. I just want to avoid double work as this job only seems a full day of work to me.
Perfect explained!!! Is it possible that the radiator broke and there is no water in the cabin, but that it flows under the chassis outside? I'm asking because I can't find where my coolant is leaking, and I see drops under the car. The mechanic looked at all the forks and they are all dry, and we can't see where the fluid is coming from. I didn't open inside the cabin to check this radiator, so I better consult with you. I didn't notice that my windows fog up, maybe a little in winter, when it's humid outside. Passat b6 2008 2.0 TDI PD engine. Thanks in advance!
If you mean the screw in the engine compartment, I think the reason is that you need to be able to pull the pipes back in order to detach the heater core.
Great video However I don’t understand why you left out one of the worse part the process which is to disconnect the pipes. It’s a very poor design by VW. Among many

Thank you for the tip, Dwayne! 👍
Thank you. I can’t seem to get them to pipes to connect back together so I can put the clamps on. I used vaseline too.
Thank you too for the feedback! 👍
Thank you for a very well made video.

The golf 6 1,6 tdi is same? My 1.6 Dont have a screw and clamp on the 2 tube ...
Hello, do all these steps work for the Polo 9N as well?
Hello! I don’t know if it’s the same procedure. Sorry!
Friend, i can't reach the tutorial for remove the evaporator of jetta/Golf MK5. Please, can help me?
Same thing for the mk7 golfs?
Yes, it’s similar.
Do you not need to drain the coolant before disconnecting the heater hoses? I only see you mention taking the cap off to release pressure
Yes, you can drain the coolant if you have any, in our case it was drained all over the carpet inside.
Is it the same for crossfox 2007 thanx
I don’t know, I did not remove it from that car model.
got a question will this method work on my 2004 vw passat glx v6 2.8 sedan?
No, you have a different Passat, the older generation. It’s different.
@@Servicetutorials I'm a try it cause it looks the same under the dash
Is it the same for the scirocco?
I don't know, sorry!
Should the whole coolant be replaced when changing the heater core?
@@ТУГАЙХАСАН Yes, never reuse the same coolant
Thanks a lot
👍
Is this the same for Passat B8?
I don’t know, sorry!
Gracias por tu video.
Super

Why remove the screw? What does that give you?

Would this work for a 2015 VW Tiguan ?
