I have searched the internet for how to do this job, no doubt this is the best one with all details I need, and only 9 minutes! Thanks for the great video!
That has to be by far the best straight to the point, super easy to follow instructions as well as prevention before the next step. Extremely good video. Thank you.
this job sucks really bad when you're doing it in a jetta. you have no room to work. this video helped a lot cuz I cant get eyes on a lot of these fasteners
When changing the intake manifold - should you change the Fuel injectors as-well to be safe or leave them alone? I currently have an Audi A5 2008 1.8TSFI ( same engine as this ) with a P2015 problem which says runner position in bank 1 out of range - and I'm assuming I'd need to change the intake manifold as the sensor is already a part of this entire part in Audi's?
It’s definitely not a bad idea, especially if the injectors have never been changed. They are prone to leaking at the seals, and also not as efficient when they age. I would replace them. If your code is only the runner, I would guess your intake is clogged up with carbon or it’s failed. Likely failed - I would have a new intake on hand so you’re not waiting.
intake you mean the manifold? Will be changing within the next few weeks, how much time do you reckon I should have free before starting roughly an entire day or so?@@bofbolts
Yes the intake manifold. Really depends on your comfort level but I would dedicate 2 hours on the intake manifold removal if you’re going to take your time. And another 1-2 hours for the injectors and cleanup. Definitely a half day job - things never go as planned 🤣
Thank you for the video very big helps for us, question; what the torque specs for intake manifold bolts, cause I need to clean intake valve my Audi a4 2.0 , thanks,, Success always
They are aluminum bolts, so it is always recommended to replace them with new ones - the manufacturer torque spec is 10NM but if you are using the old ones I would recommend slightly less.
Nice detailed video man. Is there a chance the injectors come out while removing the manifold, and if so is there a big risk by putting them back in without resealing them?
There is definitely a chance, and if they do you want to reseal them for sure. It’s not worth the risk of a fuel leak and you end up doing the job again. Have a resealing kit on hand from amazon handy, if you don’t use it you can return it. If the injectors stay in the head then just make sure the o rings are in good condition and lubricate with any silicone grease. Goodluck!
Great video that will help me tackle this job this weekend! One quick question - how did you access the 10mm triple square bolt at the bottom of the bracket that goes from the intake to the block?
It looks awkward on video but you’ll find a spot to get an extension and tripe square in there! I don’t remember the exact combination but you’ll figure it out quick, it’s very simple and not tricky at all. Goodluck with the job!
So going through this process and I was able to remove everything as mentioned in the vid which is great. But off the four injectors the left most one remained in the engine block and for some reason I am not able to pull the manifold back enough to remove the connection. Any ideas?
That’s a fairly common code unfortunately for these VW/Audi 2.0’s. You’re more than likely in need of a new intake - you could check that the arm controlling the runners is connected and hasn’t popped off. I would guess that a new intake would solve your issues.
i removed my intake manifold because my friend told me my runner flaps were bad and to inspect them. When I reinstalled it I had a nasty gas leak, i checked to make sure all the bolts were tight but they were, any idea of what the issue is? The car is literally pouring gas out. I already checked the nut on the hpfp but it was tight. Thanks for the help.
It’s either the HPFP or it may have something to do with the injectors. Did you inspect the seals to make sure they were not damaged? Also making sure the injectors are seated properly. You’ll likely have to take it all apart and inspect.
@@bofbolts I just replaced the hpfp, it wasn't leaking. Something I noticed when I took my intake off, unlike yours,my injectors came out with the intake they didn't stay on the block. I ordered a seal kit for the injectors, going to try that. I am pretty sure its my injector seals not seated properly.
i just watcheed you rother vided lol It might not even be the seals. All the injectors came out with the manifold and I reinstalled the manifold without taking them out. They are likely all just unseated.@@bofbolts
@@TheSnarfbucket yeah looks like full day job especially with carbon cleaning. Water pump would be easy access with manifold remove. How many miles is your Audi or when would be ideal to do this maintenance? Thanks.
I'm putting my A4 back together after carbon cleaning and I have a fourth wire in the harness you detach at around the 5 minute mark. I can't find where it goes back to. Any ideas?

Wow, thank you so much for the super thanks! I really appreciate it 🍻
Nice
Can someone help me. Is there a gasket to replace for the manifold or is it an integrated gasket? Or liquid one thanks
I use black silicone for high temperatures.
Great video. I have a CEL on my 2011 Audi A4 Quattro 2.0 TFSI and the code is P2015. Any ideas short of replacing the intake & sensor(s)?
That’s a fairly common code unfortunately for these VW/Audi 2.0’s.
You’re more than likely in need of a new intake - you could check that the arm controlling the runners is connected and hasn’t popped off.
I would guess that a new intake would solve your issues.
@@bofbolts Thank you!
At 3:30ish in the video there is a hose port on the manifold itself. Does it go to anything? (Large hose port possible 1/2 maybe)
Nope, nothing on that port coming off the intake.

Where is your valve gasket from?
Would this be the best route to replace injectors and do carbon cleaning?
Idk about injectors but it seems like it. Carbon cleaning for sure. I’m going to do water pump at the same time since it right there also.
@@TheSnarfbucket yeah looks like full day job especially with carbon cleaning. Water pump would be easy access with manifold remove. How many miles is your Audi or when would be ideal to do this maintenance? Thanks.
Yes, absolutely. You'll need to remove intake for your injectors and carbon cleaning.
Doing mine now... HOLY F$&K!!!!
That purge valve is a MOTHER FU$&ER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@0thers1d3 I know right?!? Wedge in a screwdriver and twist , should be a breeze.
Now I'm stuck on the temp sensor under the intake.
Holy moly.
Stripped the triple square on the bottom of the mount.
I'm pretty disappointed.
Got my extractor set. Fingers crossed
Do you have to change oil when u take filter off?
No, not necessary. Just make sure you cover the opening so you don’t drop anything in.
