Thank you so very much for this video mate. I serviced my car a couple days ago myself and then had the check engine light and the glow plug light flashing. I was wondering what went wrong, and after watching your video I realised that the air filter sensor harness had come off when I was installing the filter. I forgot to put it back in place. I was watching this at 2 AM and then went to my car, reconnected the harness back again and VOILA! The lights disappeared! You're a saviour, keep up the good work brother and you've earned yourself a new subscriber!
😁😁same happened with me 1st time when i did it , but i recognised it after 5 mins when i was inspecting the engine bay after servicing . I have same kind of craziness in this thing . If i realise something wrong with vehicle i too don't sleep untill its done , can totally understand the feeling 😅😅😅
And thanks for subscribing.
And will also recommend you buying a decent obd tool for yourself , it can give good amount of detail about MIL lights and cluster lights , they are quite cheap these days , around 700-900 and can be connected to smartphone via Bluetooth .
@@yourDIYneeds Yep, I always wanted to buy one but thought they were very expensive. Didn't even bothered to check their prices online. will buy one pretty soon and many thanks for the suggestion.
@@yourDIYneeds Ah, That feeling! Only car guys will know, glad I bumped into You!
The video is indeed what every VW/Skoda owner must watch. Excellent way of explaining the steps and cautions. The video will surely help VW/Skoda car owners. Also, reading all the questions and answers in the comments section, further clarifies things. Thank you for your fantastic approach.
Thanks for appreciation ,
People like you are motivation that keeps me going .

@@yourDIYneeds hi i owns a vw vento 1.6 tdi and is having ac low cooling replaced cabin filter (when i bought this car the cabin air filter was absent ). So if you can recommend any solution for cleaning internal evaporator coil
Bcz people are saying ac service cost 2500 and i 9 they will refil gas only
Please suggest a product or diy liquid etc
Regard
Sir there is a video on channel for cooling coil cleaner , thats a foam based clener and performed on safari but the process is same , if the filter was absent then you may have to do it twice , you can find the video on channel

Hi Bro,
I serviced My VW POLO TDI second time already myself with your video, i saved around 7 to 8 thousand Rupees from serviced myself rather than send VW service center.
Thank you so much!
Hi Bro,
Do you recommend i buy spare from
boodmo.com ?
Sorry bro,
I can't Understand Hindi but i still can understand your video by using English Subtitle in the Video.
Thank you!
Welcome sir .
Yes you can , just check the manufacturing dates of components before you use them , like oil and shock absorbers .
👍👍
I think this is first ever video I have seen for servicing and flushing of an Indian car. Its really informative keep up the good work.
Most welcome sir 👍
I must say this is the best video in you tube that gives clear explanation on how to do a normal service for VAG cars. I own a Polo GT TDI and I am an auto enthusiast and I would want to do my service myself. My car has clocked 1,10,000 kms so far, and it's due for its next service and after watching this video I think I want to give it a try myself in servicing my car. A big thumbs up for sharing the video. Pls continue to post more. You are the best!
Few suggestions:
I am from South India I do not understand Hindi well. Could you please add subtitles or make the videos in English for better understanding. I must also say your communication skills are very good and your pronounciation shows you could be from an engineering background.
If you could also speak a little louder as the voice isn't much louder. It is audible and adequate but if you are a little louder it would just make the video perfect. I know you could do better if you have the proper gears to record this video assuming you are recording this on your mobile..
Your help needed:
Where can I source VW genuine products here in South India I stay in Coimbatore. Asking you this question in case if you any contacts who can source them it will be very helpful.
Unlike others, not even once have you requested us to like this video or subscribe to your channel or the post notifications which blew my mind. I will say this honestly this particular video's content is super helpful and so I have liked this vidoe gave it a thumbs up. Subscribed to your channel and turned on post notifications so that I won't miss any of your up coming videos.. sharing it with my friends who owns VAG cars.
#Peace brother
Thanks alot for appreciations brother
Will definately keep in mind all your suggestions about subtitles and audio level of upcoming videos
As i live in north india i know where to source parts but i am sorry to say that i dont know about southern parts
But will definitely try searching , if i got any source i will let you know
@@yourDIYneeds thank you :-)
Most welcome
@@yourDIYneeds hi, Could you please let me know if we should change the fuel filter for every 15,000 kms? Or 30,000 kms? Also how much did it cost you ?
@@yourDIYneeds I have changed my fuel filter in my last service. I have procured a new one now and it costed me alot for this part. Please confirm if Volkswagen recommends to change this 15000kms once or 30000 kms?
LIked the video buddy.
Would like to suggest one thing regarding the oil filter.
Wrong step at 13:20 , dont just drop the filter into socket.
Oil filter should be first clicked onto the filter cap with the rod, and then placed into the engine.
This will ensure the filter is properly stuck to the rod of the filter cap, and the o ring can do its sealing job correctly.
When you remove the filter cap, ideally the filter also should come up along with the cap. This is an indication that the filter is placed correctly in previous service.
It is also a good idea to soak the filter, in case your service take more than 2 hours.
Sir i trully appreciate the correction step
But i tried that way but due to the space restriction , i wasn't able to plce the filter on the rod first and then screw it back , but will surely remember your advice and will try to find a way to do the same 👍
what a crystal clear service man
Watched this video...excited to do skoda service my self but that oil drain part is not my type....
I bought 5w40 5L, oil/diesel/air filter's, coolant..(5k total)....I went to local service guy....he said, he can do the job for 500Rs.....I said OK.
He took 15 minutes and the job is done....I felt it's the best way to do this job....let local service guys survive and learn from the daily job...I will repeat the same in the next service.
sir will u pls mention the parts cost
Man this is lovelly.
Thanks a ton

Sir in polo 1.2 petrol how much coolant bottles ( g13 premix 1.5 liters OEM) are needed please help ?
Love your content!!!!
2 ltrs concentrated needed In total , mix it with 2 ltrs distilled water . Then pour it in system , after flushing it with distilled water first
Thank you so much brother.. Thanks for this knowledge sharing.. One doubt exactly how much quantity of coolant is required after flushing fully.
Sir if we are able to flush out complete cooling system ( which is impossible untill be pull out either water pump or thermostat housing ) the total capacity is close to 6 Ltrs
But if just radiator flushing has been done then you need close to 3.5-4.0 Ltrs of coolant mix to fill the system again
@@yourDIYneeds Thank you so much🙂👍🏻
@@yourDIYneeds most informative lines but surprised that none pressed the like button 😄. We indians are great👏
Coolant capacity ?
It's simple and effective video I already have owned petrol cars and was planning to buy polo alot say that tdi is better how is tdi compared to highline or tsi?
Sir TDI is diesel engine
TSI is petrol and highline is one of the verients of the vehicle
@@yourDIYneeds My bad corrections tdi* not tsi.
Sir TDi is a diesel powertrain and TSi is a petrol powertrain
Tdi has alot of grunt from 1600 to almost 4000 rpm and gin TSi the real power comes after 4,500 rpm and after thats its quite a lot of fun but it has a dsg transmission as compared to TDi which has a manual , advantage and disadvantage of petrol and diesel remains same for every engine nomatter from which brand it is ,
So crux is
If you like that " punch in the face " feeling then go for diesel and if you like having comfort in city driving then petrol is the one , you can rev the diesel as well
It goes all the way upto 5500rpm ( one of few diesel engines which are capable of revving so high ) .
Very helpful video clicked by you, Sir, my vw polo getting down the coolent level.. Without showing any leakage outside. This problem occurs only in summer.. Not in winter. Pls advise me how to find out the fault.
Around the connections , and drain plug
?
@@khushpreetsingh2241 sir you need to check the pipe connection and drain plug seal for the leaks , in winters pressure is in control but in high heat pressure rises up , and can cause evaporation leaks as well from reservoir caps as well
Did the air filter have an o ring at the bottom? The older models had them, I'm curious if they removed it it for the newer ones?
Doesn't have a o-ring at bottom but have a o-ring kind of seal at the top
Every Vw/skoda Owner Should Must watch the Video Nice Work Bro
But From Where Did You Source the Parts For Vw Vento

Is There Any Way To Buy Genuine OEM Part From Service Center or Any Official Spare Part Shop For Vw
Sir , parts are easily available in outside market .
And that too OEM
Vw has to fullfill there sales target , and in service centres they are unable to do it . So they sell in bulk offline .

Hi Mr. DIY, i am gratefull to you for uploading video and helping me run my car 2.25.000, i want to completely 100% drain coolant from vento 1.6 TDI 2011. Kindly help me with the steps. From Engine block, heater coil, radiator, everywhere
I alreaxy have premixed coolant with me, just need your guidance to completely drain whole system.
Sir , for that you need to open the drain plug and drain all the coolant and fill the system with distilled water , start the car , turn the cabin heater on and let it warm up till the radiator fan kicks in and then drain the water , you have to flush the system like this atleast 2-3 times to make sure that every last bit of old coolant is out of system
Hope it helps
Thank you for the reply. I have flushed the system 4 times with heater on. As i have genuine premixed coolant, i will have to completely empty distilled water from the system. Any guidance regarding it??
Sir , not possible to drain the block , untill thermostat is removed
I want to get the coolant changed. Location is Mumbai. Let me know if you can help.
Should the oil filter not fit into the housing first that is what I do
Yes sir , its just 2 ways of doing the same job

What about MANN filters? Can we use them?
Yes sir MANN is a very reputed brand and possess good quality products
Thanks for this informative information...you made my life easy bro...love u for this video man..
Thanks for sharing these steps. Very helpful DIY steps. If right tools and right parts are acquired, this video is definitely helpful. One query though. I recently changed coolant for ameo diesel, at VW service station, and they used G-13 (costing 443 Rs for 1.5 L can). G-13 is pre-mixed with coolant and water, and so we don't need to add any water. In total, 4 L G-13 was used after completely flushing the old coolant. Even owner manual suggests use of G-13 coolant, however you mentioned using G-12. Any difference ?
One quick suggestion. Please use hand gloves to ensure safety. Thanks
Sir now newer vehicles use g13 , mine is 2014 and it recommends g12
And the one i bought was concentrated so i had to mix distilled water in to make a mix , it doesn't affect if its pre-mix or concentrate g13 is just a successor of g12 , not much difference , both are based on ethelene glycol with some minor changes in cleaning ability and heat handling abilities
Thanks alot sir , i will definitely keep in mind the glove suggestion ! 👍👍
Hey brother,
Wanted to know what brand filter was there which came out to be faulty? Sofima, Purolator, Zip, Elofic or Mahle?
Sir it was an oil filter by name of vika
Hello it's a awesome DIY. However from last few months I saw my ameo tdi's coolant is appearing little rusty and coolant box where you can see max min level became all rusty. What could be the reason? And what I have to communicate servicing guys to fix that problem? Is it critical?
Have to flush the the whole cooling system with distilled water and then refill the cooling system with genuine coolant , and yes its critical because it is related to your vehicle's cooling system
@@yourDIYneeds appreciate your prompt response. Thanks your videos are awesome.

Sir I have flushed my skoda rapid 1.6 L tdi and put glysentin 30 concentrate just 1 L and 1 L distilled water after 4-5 times water flush but the level in reservoir is max mark with two litre. Also in every water flush it takes only 2 L of water.is it ok or some problem is there in radiator. I drained from plug shown by you in the video. Rapid model is Dec 2013.what is total capacity of coolant mix for the same vehicle I have done total flush plus reservoir clean after seen your video it gave me great confidence to do work. Thanks a lot also want to tell u that will do servicing next purchase all part online from boodmo. Please clear the coolant doubt also want to tell that I have drive vehicle after flush about 10 km but level not reducing and no warning light please give a detailed answer waiting for it love from jamnagar gujarat also ROHTAK
Happy to hear that you got confidence after watching my video .
The cooling system is designed in a way that it doesn't completely allow to drain itself untill the bottom hoze on the radiator is disconnected , it somehow still holds around 1.5-2.0 ltrs of coolant inside the system. So putting 2 ltrs of new coolant concentrate in the reservoir is totally fine.
Go ahead and do the service as well ,
If you need any advise or help , i am available
Sometimes youtube app doesn't notify comments , so you can mail me as well
everydaydiyhelp@gmail.com
@yourDIYneeds Can you tell which tools(sockets, wrenches etc) do you have and where to buy the best quality products for diy for VW cars?
Sir i use decent quality tools
Like i have a complete kit of socket set and wrench of taparia
And torx and spline set by force
And some wrenches and spanners
Vw cars have normal hex bolts, torx bolts and some spline as well on some places
So you have to keep in mind these things before buying a set
So that it can be of use to you
Thanks for the prompt reply
Do I need to have bihexagonal sockets too or just hexagonal sockets will suffice?
Also if you can enlist the most needed torx and spline bits as I am a little tight on budget and was thinking to buy only those bits which I might need

You can use this - amzn.to/3x7C43b
Nice video.. 5W 30 is prescribed oil in VW cars..
for non dpf diesel cars, use 5w30 when service is not timely, use 5w40 when its timely. if you have dpf filter then 5w40 for both scenarios.
for petrol 0w30/40 in very cold weather, 05w30/40 for mild cold to hot, and 10w30/40 for warm and tropical climates
How much coolant and water is reqd for complete flush?
Any idea to make coolant reservoir transparent again as it is rusty in my car.
Yes sir I have a video on that too , check the Volkswagen playlist , small trick 😅
Volkswagen recommends coolant chnage not required lifetime, its only need to be topup with G13 or G12 (According to Model). Why you have flushed it completely? Just confirm and clear my doubt. Nice informative video by the way. One of the best available in UA-cam.
Sir there is a video on my channel to clean the coolant reservoir because the coolant started to accumulate rust and it gunked up the bottle
Vw says thats its a lifetime coolant but it doesn't performed as promised , i suspect that while the car was gone service in vw workshop maybe someone has topped it up with tap water .
That was the reason i flushed the complete system and refilled it
@@yourDIYneeds yes bro, they top up with tap water. The Service technician has admitted the same to me. They don't even know silly things which are there in the user's manual.

You have amazing knowledge and explained the service very well..
I just wanted to know any better engine oil than castrol edge and shell helix 5w-40 if available ?
I am looking for vw vento 1.6tdi
Sir,
Vw 1.2 , 1.5 , 1.6 and 2.0 tdi engines use oil which confirms to the vw 505.01 oil specification of oil and in our country there are only few oils which meets this requirement
1. castrol edge ( dex² version)
2. Liqui moly toptec 4100
3 motul x-clean 8100 ( very tough to source)
Shell helix ultra doesn't fulfill the criteria of 505.01 . It fulfills the older criteria of vw 505 but can be used if now 505.01 oil is available
In case of unavailability vw505 is still better than others
These criteria of oil is decided upon the mix of friction modifier , detergent properties , heat handling ability , pressure handling abilities, stability and maintaining the lubricity over long oil change durations .
Hope I cleared your doubt and answered the question 😊
Hope it helps 👍👍👍
@@yourDIYneeds sir that was a thorough explaination of everything
Thanks and wish you all the best.
I will be using castrol then..
I hope it is available at sai motors, kg?
And may i know what is dex²
And if i add ceratec to oil will it be any of good use?
Most probably yes it will be available , after the lockdown
Dex2 is - dexros 2 specification ( it will be written with the oil grade in blue colour
I have personally used ceratec , when i bought it it was around 3000 bucks ,
Review is kind of mixed , hard to notice any difference , even a very keen person will hardly notice any difference .

Amazing job done dear
the local mechanic used green coolant for my polo 1.2 tdi (2011) is it fine to use that green coolant?
No sir , colour is not a good indicator for specific coolant , Volkswagen requires g12 or g13 which comes in pink colour, its specific for the engine , so that block doesn't start to rust from inside
Excellent video bhai! Loved it!
I happened to check the engine oil level in my diesel rapid and seems the oil has gone below the dip stick. Is it ok to drive to service centre?
I am tempted to try doing it myself but little worried about messing the oil filter replacement. Kindly advise.
Sir vw tdi are known to consume engine oil by design so its not an issue , just keep an eye over the oil pressure light on your dash cluster , if oil is below the minimum mark on dipstick you still have close to 3.5. 3.7 ltrs .
If you want to go ahead and do it on your own , you can do it , its quite easy , definitely not rocket science , just some bolts and nuts and you are done 👍👍
Will see if I can grab an oil filter and get started.. Is it necessary to change the diesel filter along or I can do that anytime later.
Thanks a ton for quick response. You’re awesome!
Sir yes , oil filter is supposed to get change along with engine oil and on tdi fuel filter is also supposed to be changed on every service , as the injectors are quite sensitive to the quality of fuel , we definitely don't want an injector to fail due to failure of filtration, my advise is to spend 2k on fuel filter every year rather than paying close to 25k / injector to vw .
And thanks alot for appreciation sir 👍👍
Hi bro, I'll be doing an oil change for my 1.5 TDI engine. There is just one question that I have, the oil that I can get online comes in a 4L container, would that be enough for the oil change?
Sir , i guess not , you need 4.3 ltrs of oil . + A little bit extra for case of top-ups
What top ups would you consider? Kindly suggest, thank you.
Sir that totally depends upon the consumption of your engine , ideally vw tdi are designed to consume a little bit of oil
Alright, thank you so much. I guess I'll go for 4.5L of Castrol Edge 5W 40. You're the best!

Sir you can go for glysantin g30 , its the same product , made by BASF ( which makes the g12nand g13 for vw group )
Easily available in car spares shop
Great video, Very Informative. I have small doubt
Since oil filter is located on top, Can we change oil filter without draining engine oil?
Will there be loss of oil, if we open oil-filter for change?
Yes you can do it , minor loss of oil
@@yourDIYneeds Thanks, I also have a 1.5 tdi. How do you source the OEM spares? Local spares shops don't have these

what is the quantity of coolant required for Skoda Rapid TDI 1.5 , i have purchased only 1.5 ltr of g30 and 2 ltrs of distelled water
Sir it will work , as the coolant needs to be mixed in ratio of 1:3 with water . So effective mix is going to be around 4.5 ltrs
sir ek video banaiye jo part replacement pe ho ......like shock absorbers kitne km pe change karein......break pads kab change karein ....break fluid kab change karein etc etc .....all parts and kilometers run for changing them ....plz make it as soon as possible
Ok sir
Very very usefull and easy to understand...good job
The oil filter is situated in different place in my 2011 polo tdi and for all the polo oil filter whether the socket size for oil filter is 32mm
Yes for most of vw vehicles its 32 mm
yourDIYneeds I have a spanner of 32 size I tried opening it but i can't open the oil filter cap instead it's ruining the socket cap. Do I have to use any other special tool I mean the 32mm bit with an extender and a wrench kindly reply I need your support
Sir, its a plastic bolt please dont use spanner either use a socket or a closed wrench
By using spanner you will make it round
yourDIYneeds thank you for your support I will let you know
Most welcome

I have serviced my car 1 month ago and when i checked my coolant box it was empty. I don't know the reason why that happened. So now do i need to refill the coolant or can i use water ?
You can top up with distilled water , but find the source of leak ASAP
@@yourDIYneeds Sure, Thanks for the help
My Rapid 1.6 TDi ambition plus doesn’t have sensor below diesel filter ...Or does Skoda doesn’t provide sensor or my model is old ?
Sir it depends upon year or manufacturing
And sensor below fuel filter is just contamination sensor , it tells you when your diesel have water in it , maybe for your model sensor is located somewhere else maybe tank
Sofima diesel filter ki quality kaisi h bhai?
Sahi hai sir , matlab 6-7 out of 10
I can find only VW diesel filters for polo and Vento
So please reply bro
I have skoda 1.6 tdi elegance 2013 model
i have only 3liter of readymix genuine vw coolant 1.5liter 2 bottles can i add little bit battery water or required 1 more ready mix bottle please tell me
You can add , but it has to be distilled
Ohk but it's already ready mix if I apply 3 liter of readymix with 3 liter of distilled water so performance of coolant will decrease ?
Yes sir efficiency will decrease

It requires 2.5 ltrs

Please sir suggest something 🙏
Please also tell us how to update the software or ve cars Specially vento. If hvcv not working.then how can be troubleshoot locally
Sir, you can't update the software of your car on your own untill you have access to the dealership

I tried coolant flushing and replacement in my 1.5 tdi and some weird things happened. After filling the coolant and running the engine for some time, boiling coolant with bubbles was pushed out through the coolant reservoir cap. I think air trapped inside could be the possible reason for this. How did you bleed the air out of the cooling system.? Did you have to remove the intercooler hose connector before flushing out..?
Sir i just left the cap open even after filling the coolant for around 10-15 mins
@@yourDIYneeds ok. And what about the intercooler hose ? Did you disconnect it before draining hot coolant. It is just below the coolant drain plug.
No , its not an issue , don't disconnect the intercooler hoze
I was told that we can't simply go to VW/SKODA and buy the parts we have to give our car to the service centre how did you bought all those parts bro?
There is a shop in our area which deals in orignal spares
@@yourDIYneeds what is your contact number I live in Gurgaon and would like that you do the service
Glad to hear that ,
but sir I don't have a workshop , its my hobby and i love to work on cars
but i can guide you at any point
@@yourDIYneeds can you please share the name of the shop from where you get the original spare parts..??
Sir Kashmiri gate market
Sai motors , they deal only in audi ,skoda and vw parts
Hi, Could you throw some light on what happens when you put diesel in the engine oil compartment? I am not able to think beyond.
As diesel has quite a good dissolving properties , mixed with oil it enables the oil to dissolve more that what oil alone can do , it also reduces the viscosity of oil which helps oil to flow with less restriction and due to less restriction oil carry more deposits to the sump . And it also starts to dissolve the caked up or baked sludge from the engine down to sump so that it can be drain .
For experiment - just take a piece of carbon deposit from egr cooler and put it inside diesel , but dont shake the diesel , you will observe that diesel will start to disolve the carbon .
@@yourDIYneeds Thanks a lot brother.
@@yourDIYneeds Also, how much diesel should we put ? You mentioned 300 ml in the video ?
Sir around 250-300 ml is sufficient.
