    I like the idea of warming up the car for 10 minutes and then let it cool down for 5 minutes. That is clever! And indeed the torque wrenches are for sissies. Tighten until squeak and you will be fine.

    Stay safe. Axle stands might be a good idea 👍

    Always wise to check the plug gap before installing..in this case its 1mm.And ' just tighten up' (spark plugs) should be torque to 22Nm Always refer to a workshop manual!

    A good tip is to put a flattened cardboard box under the car that will catch any spilt oil from the catch can keeps the ground clean. Axle stands should be used not a good idea going under a car just on a jack!

    Very good tutorial, if you could do a cam belt change video that would be great. I have a 62 plate VW UP Black and it is a very reliable car. All the best.

    You omitted the pollen filter. And a check on brake pad thickness and disc/drum condition would be good...

    How do you remove stubborn coil packs which hand pressure alone cant do

    • @AlphaEngineer2022
      @AlphaEngineer2022  3 месяца назад

      Good question, pliers and a flat head screw driver. They definitely can be stubborn to get out sometimes.

  • @One-EyedMisfit
    @One-EyedMisfit Год назад

    Heres a tip - get a cordless drill with a torx bit for the airbox. Also, for the oil filter, use a small G-clamp for your oil filter, instead of punching a screwdriver through it. Less messy

    • @AlphaEngineer2022
      @AlphaEngineer2022  2 года назад +1

      That’s a good question, I’m not too familiar with the store names in other country’s, you could always try eBay/Amazon or ring up VW themselves and get them to order the parts in🙂
