Volkswagen Golf TDI Cold Weather Intercooler Upgrade DIY (2009-2013 Mk6 VW Golf TDI, Jetta TDI)

►TDI engines are known to collect moisture in the intake system that will freeze in cold weather. Once frozen, it can restrict airflow and then travel into the engine when thawed, potentially hydro-locking it. Replacing your TDI's standard intercooler with this Genuine VW cold weather intercooler kit will solve that problem and prevent any expensive engine damage that may come with it.
In this video, Mike Hidalgo, FCP Euro's Professional DIY'er, tackles the cold weather intercooler upgrade on a Mk6 Golf TDI.
