Renewing seals on injectors  
Note  
Injectors from different manufacturers are used. For alloca‐  
tion to the engine, refer to ⇒ ETKA (Electronic parts cata‐  
logue).  
In the case of version -B- injectors (with bead -arrow-), an  
M8 washer must be fitted onto the injector before installing  
the seal. This prevents the calibration sleeve from being  
pushed up behind the seal.  
Special tools and workshop equipment required  
♦ Tool set for FSI engines -T10133C-  
♦ M8 washer, only for version -B- injectors  
Note  
In this section, the work procedure for the combustion cham‐  
ber seals (Teflon ring seal) is described.  
The combustion chamber ring seal must always be renewed  
prior to reinstalling the injector.  
– Clean injector carefully.

– Carefully cut oil seal open with a knife -arrow-. Avoid contact  
between knife blade and valve body under all circumstan‐  
ces.  
– Remove old seal and clean seal groove in area of seal  
-arrow-. Remove any deposits (coking) with a brass wire  
brush.

seal -1-), slide seal onto assembly cone as far as possible.  
– Rotate assembly sleeve -T10133/6- (knurled section no lon‐  
ger points to seal).  
– Now push oil seal to end of assembly cone.  
– Only for version -B- injectors: fit M8 washer -A- onto injector.

Cleaning injectors  
Note  
In this section, the work procedure for injectors (combustion  
chamber) is described.  
Special tools and workshop equipment required  
♦ Ultrasonic cleaning unit -VAS 6418-  
♦ Mounting plate for injection modules -VAS 6418/1-  
♦ Cleaning fluid -VAS 6418/2-  
Cleaning  
– Close drain tap -arrow- of ultrasonic cleaning unit -VAS  
6418- at right-hand side of housing.

– Fill ultrasonic cleaning unit with 2120 ml of water which was  
allowed to stand for a while and with cleaning fluid -VAS  
6418/2-.  
Mixing ratio for cleaning fluid  
2100 ml of water which was allowed to stand for a while and  
20 ml of cleaning fluid -VAS 6418/2-.  
– Remove injectors ⇒ page 427 .  
– Fit mounting plate for injection modules -VAS 6418/1- onto  
cleaning unit.  
Note  
Before starting ultrasonic cleaning unit -VAS 6418-, it is es‐  
sential that the safety information described in the operating  
manual is observed.  
The ideal fluid level is reached when the cleaning agent is  
approx. 1 to 4 mm above the base of the mounting plate.  
The ultrasonic cleaner -VAS 6418- could become damaged  
if the fluid level is too low.  
– Insert injectors into guides of mounting plate for injection  
modules -VAS 6418/1- as far as stop.  
– Switch on cleaning unit by pressing on/off button -C-.

– Use rotary knob -A- to set cleaning time to 30 minutes.  
– Set rotary knob -B- to a temperature of 50°C.  
– Press button -D- to start the cleaning process.  
Note  
Temperature-controlled cleaning is now activated. During  
the warm-up period, ultrasonic waves are activated to mix  
the cleaning fluid. Once the preselected temperature is  
reached, the ultrasonic waves are switched to continuous  
operation.  
The cleaning time must be at least 30 minutes and cleaning  
only starts at a temperature of at least 50°C.  
– Each time after cleaning injectors (combustion chamber),  
renew combustion chamber seal (Teflon ring seal) ⇒ page  
435 .  
– Install injectors (combustion chamber) ⇒ page 427 .
