According to service manual alternetor in this procedure must be removed. Then almoust any tool is good. 🤣 I use Vokswagen tool 3185. There was also a delicate twelve-beam tool with a rounded tip. I don't remember the number.
@uldisbetons8776 By 1.6d you mean 1.6 engine? I have the 2.0 tdi engine. My engine coolant temp is not reaching normal temperature operation. I would have check the dsg thermostat first since it's easier than the main thermostat
@@flowless1753 If there is a 2.0 tdi and a dsg dq250, then there should be such a thermostat. And according to experience, the thermostat to the gearbox is the first to die. But the main thermostat can also be left open!
@@flowless1753 Have you watched carefully? If everything is assembled there, it is difficult to see him. As far as I can remember, I have never changed one for golf. I have changed Passat, Sharan and maybe also Tiguan.
On this engine , by service manual, plastic pipe must removed to change termostat. I changed all the thermostats that I have changed as shown in the video. Double oring always put a new one.
@@uldisbetons8776 Thats a shame. I found a thermostat thats compatible, but what use is it if i cant get the thing out of the housing..? :( Thanks for the info! :)
What Tool can I easy to remove 2 Thermostat Screws? What are you using? 😀

How long it takes to complete the entire operation?
The whole process took about 3 hours.
Is it possible that my MK6 TDI with DSG has no DSG thermostat? On the coolant hose from the dsg transmission there is no thermostat like yours.
It is possible that there is no such thermostat. If there is 1.6 d and dsg is dq200.

I was not able to remove the thermostat on CBA engine without undoing the plastic pipe behind the oil filter, and still managed to damage double oring

Jauks darbiņš.😊
Prieks censties.
Hi do you know the part number for the dsg thermostat? Thanks
1K0 121 113 A
Why remove fans?
To get more space for work. This is not even close to job description in service manuals. 😂
Is it possible to replace just the thermostat and keep the plastic housing? Or do you need to swap the whole thing?
It is necessary to change the whole body because it is one part. It is not possible to replace only the thermostat separately.

@@sk4lman Nothing to do. Will have to be replaced with housing. As far as I remember, the housing did not look disassembled.
I have a different looking gearbox thermostat 2012 Jetta TDI 2.0 dsg
possible. But I have not seen different looking dsg gearbox thermostats.
