Volkswagen Golf TDI Thermostat Replacement DIY (2009-2013 Mk6 VW Golf TDI)

- ►Although the Mk6 TDI Golf burns diesel instead of gasoline, many of its engine systems are the same. Replacing the thermostat on a TDI engine carries the same importance as it does on a TSI engine, and its operation is critical to your engine's health. To perform efficiently and effectively, the engine coolant needs to reach a specific temperature range, and a failed thermostat can prevent it from reaching that range or prevent it from maintaining the range. Replace your TDI's thermostat during a water pump replacement and ensure your cooling system's health for the next 80,000 miles.
Wrench along with Mike Hidalgo, FCP Euro's Professional DIY'er, as he replaces the thermostat on a Mk6 Golf TDI.

God bless, this video makes it look so easy. This is one of the hardest jobs I’ve ever done on a car. Everything is so damned tight. German engineering…
Brother, this one was not fun...

I agree, my knuckles are destroyed
Try replacing a DPF on a gen 7 golf TDI, without ramps. I'd do this 10 times rather than do that again!
@@dopiaza2006 yeah, no. I pulled the DSG on a Jetta. That was enough. I don’t even have the car anymore. I’ll honestly never own another German.
@@jpm2655 Yeah DSG is fun. Slightly easier as you don't have a clutch to mess about with but it;s bigger and almost twice the weight of the manual. Not pleasant.
Great video, but that music is dreadful. Whoever decided that was a good idea needs firing.
vag tamircisi olarak videoyu zevkle izledim cekim oldukça profosyonel tesekkürler
Excellent job!
Would love to see how to put vehicle into service mode.
Great job man , keep up with videos and great video work
Appreciate it!
Very well explained you helped me loads many thank 👍👍👍👍🍺🍺
great instruction but the music is horific
i have to mujte it every time it comes on its that annoying
hi. great video! what is the name/type of screw marker that you use for check mark, please?
Thank you! I was using a standard Sharpie paint pen for this video.
Would this video be applicable for changing the thermostat on a VW Golf mk6 2010 1.6 bluemotion?
Diesel, yes
Brilliant video
Just one important question
Is it changing thermostat fixed the temperature issues like you said in the beginning of the video?
Because I got the same problem on my VW CC 2.0 TDI 2012
My car it's staying between 70-90C
Up in down all the time
Thanks for your help
The temp on this Golf finally reached operating temp and stayed there after this repair!
What is that tool bit you are using? Is it a triple square with a hex on the other end? ** I didn't need a special tool, got a regular socket and universal joint in ok.
Which part?!
@@fcpeuro-media I meant for doing the lower stat. screw. Great video, it really helped my son an I to get it done. However it seems to be the secondary thermostat going to the trans. that is stuck open slightly.
You can get triplesquare stubby sets that have 10mm hex on the other end.All you need then is 10mm spanner to undo it. A ratchet spanner is better!
there is something seriously wrong with whoever chose the music for these videos
ALWAYS if you're doing this job either buy a genuine thermostat or a MEYLE - they are the original manufacturer. You don't want to do this job twice because of a cheap part. FEBI probably ok too.
Yeah, the 'music' is rather annoying and adds nothing
sorry i cant watch this anymore the music is unbearable
