Thanks for this video! Got my mk6 running smooth and not leaking oil. I did the job without those tools but man it was a terrible experience 😞. Definitely recommend to anyone attempting this to get the pick tools. Thanks👍🏾
Much respect! Yea, the pick tool will make it easier.
Even /with/ the pick tools, it was rough for me getting that cap off. I worked at it for like 20 minutes straight, picking and clawing before it snapped and went flying.
My diaphragm wasn't ripped, but I figured it'd be good preventative maintenance.
Great video! You did an excellent job filming and its very easy to follow. I am glad our PCV valve is working out for you.
Thank you! Yes, its been good.
Hello. Your video was so helpful and saved me the expense of a mechanic. Using the "pick tools" helped immensely. It was a bit of a struggle to get the cap off. I found that the rubber seal was ripped. Definitely in need of replacement. Thanks!
I'm happy this video helped you to get it replaced. Yes, the pick tool is a versatile tool. Thanks for watching, Much respect!
Just subscribed! Very clear video and amazing quality. I plan to move from stage 2 mk5 (Manual) and get an mk6 (DSG) and go stage 3 with it. I am buying all the parts I want to change for the mk6 like, PCV Valve, timing chain, coil packs, spark plugs, etc. They said this is a common part to fail and seeing you install it gives me confidence I can easily do it on my own.
Thanks and welcome! I'm currently gathering parts to go big turbo stage 3 as well. I just did my timing chain.
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds Nice!!! That's amazing!!! When I first get it I'll go stage 2 but within a year I'm definitely going big turbo on it with an LSD with meth kit. If I can push 400 to 450whp on stock DSG and motor I'll be very happy. I wouldn't need anymore power than that. Since the power to weight ratio on these cars are amazing.
Same I just got a mk6 GTI
Thanks for the tip on indication test. Might want to replace motor mounts.
Thanks for watching. I already upgraded the mounts and I made the step by step video.
Hopefully this fix my problem !!!!! Thanks Dude !!!!!!
🤞
Very interesting video, didn’t realize this type of fix was an option!
Yes, definitely an option. Thanks for watching!
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds you can also upgrade this to a catch can with a Africa plate
@@derekb1887 Yes, I know about the catch can upgrade. I just don't want to do it yet, because alot of people having issues with the catch can setup and at the same time alot of people don't have any problems with the stock setup.
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds 100% understand I just like the look over the stock setup. Thanks for the awesome videos by the way I’m happy I stumbled across your channel keep up the great work boss!
@@derekb1887 Yea, definitely the catch can setup looks much better. But, because I'm running a big turbo setup I gotta be careful. Thanks for checking out my content and much respect!
Amazing video brother. Greetings from Cyprus
Thanks, much respect! Greetings to everyone watching from Cyprus
Well done, sir!
I have ordered the RKX upgrade and I'm looking forward to (hopefully) never having to deal with this P0171/P12A2/RMS replacement again! I just hope I've got to it in time, before the RMS has gone again. It's only been about 44K miles since the last one.
Yea, hopefully your RMS is not leaking. Once you do this upgrade you should be good to go.
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds The upgrade was done, the engine codes cleared, and so far, so good! I did NOT see any oil from anywhere except maybe the engine cover and around the PCV and a little something around the HPFP.
Oh, cool. Did your diaphragm had a tear?
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds yes, the diaphragm was definitely bad and I believe that was the only cause of my P0171 and P12A2 codes. The codes haven't returned. So glad I found this video.. Thank you so much
I'm happy you solve the issue, thanks for watching!
Im going to use your amazon link to ensure that you get some commission! Thank you for the help.
Much respect!
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds finally found some time to install it. She's running like a beauty.
@@packapunchie Nice! I'm happy you got it resolved.
@CraftyWorkshopBuilds is your Amazon link for the part no longer available 🙏🏼 ?
My guy...Thank you! Great informative video... . I'd tried to remove it with a flathead but it was much easier with the hook, like you suggested. My top cap was brittle and broke when I was prying it off, but as long as you don't break the bottom part, you're good...
I have a lot of tools but didn't have a good hook set, so I went to good ol Amazon and ordered one of those, the PCV diaphragm, and a new air filter while I was at it. Your smart little dipstick trick gave me a good idea that this tiny part might be the cause of the error code P0507 I was getting...
With the top cap off, I cleaned the build-up out, and noticed a clear rip in the thin stock diaphragm. It makes me wonder if all or most of the engine issues we've had with this vehicle relating to breathing and the Check Engine or EPC light isn't all tied to this flimsy OE part...Putting the new, more durable, part on was simple, but you want it to snap when it goes over the tabs. I used a rag and rubber mallet to lightly tap on the cap above the tabs to get it to snap into place easily...I also utilized the original, longer spring, like a lot of people suggest is the best route...
With that job done in 10 minutes or so, I swapped the air filter out real quick, replaced the engine cover, and gave the car a start...
On first start, the car stuttered a bit, idled roughly for about 30 seconds, then stalled out. I immediately restarted the car and the CE light was still on, but it seemed to be running a little smoother. After about 20 seconds or so, the RPM's dropped from 1100 to around 850 and held steady...I hooked up the diagnostic tool and had a reading that showed the same errors, P0507 and P2187. I cleared the codes and the light went out and the car was idling well. Took it for a quick spin and took another reading, and had no codes or lights illuminated on the dash. So that felt good...
Time may show me otherwise, but it kinda looks like your video helped another man learn something, and save some cash! Much appreciated...
Much respect! Yea, the pick tool was the best tool that I found to remove the cap without breaking it. The stock diaphragm is a common failure part, when it fails it causes other problems as well. Hopefully your CEL stays off, let me know how it runs after a couple days. I'm happy I was able to help, thanks for watching.
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds seems to have done the trick...no Check Engine or EPC lights after a week. Thanks again!
The best way to remove the pcv cover is push a flat head screw driver in between the cap & housing towards the tab & the plastic will pop over the tab. Just make sure you line it up with the tab & do not pry at the plastic because it will mess up the housing.
Thank you. You are the best!!!
Much respect!👍🏽
I just put that same piece on nephews 2.0 and they shipped me the black plastic inner piece upside down and I installed it that way. Going back and taking it apart .. I was thinking the whole time it should have had an insert to center the spring but i put it on the same way it was shipped . never occured to me to flip it over ? LOL car had other issues so only was driven for 5 minutes since I installed it so no worries.
I'm burning a quart of oil every 600 miles now in my 2016 Jetta with 92K on it. Tried your dipstick test and instead of the engine stumbling, the idol increased and did not stammer or shake in any way. Now I'm wondering if it's an internal problem and not the PCV diaphragm or assembly. Damn cars!
So really it's just cleaning it out then? I think I might have a bad one of these and I know my BCM is starting to play with me.
great job..is this same fix/part for Mk6 1.8T engines (gen3- 2015-2017)
This was so helpful with informative details and examples! Thank you so much
I'm happy you found this helpful, thanks for watching!
Hi ! is your Amazon link for this part no longer available 🙏🏼 ?
Man try some aerospace 707 protection on that rubber diaphragm
Thanks dude, just did mine using your DIY. Check your coolant level though. That shit looks low even for warm temps.
Cool, I'm happy you got value from this video. Yea, the coolant level is good now, lol
I replaced my diaphragm and now I keep getting engine codes of vacuum leaks and system too lean - I tried to put it back on twice to make sure it was in the right spot but still getting the codes after 20mins of driving. Why?
Was there any other issues besides the stumbling you mentioned... I just tested mine like you said mine don’t really stumble but it seems to run fine so I ordered it anyways plus I’m at 119k it’s never been changed what you think
It's a common issue on these cars, its a pretty good chance it's bad if it's never been replaced before. You can always take off the cap and check the diaphragm.
Question, if I plug the hole on my pcv valve and the engine starts to want to stall does that mean it's bad?
Same question here, any answers?
tried the dip stick. mine is broken. thx
Much respect!
sow my gti has started to drink oil. if i am not mistaking it could be the pcv deaphragm right?
Excellent job thank you
Thank you!
I replaced the gasket and cover but my car still has the same problems it whistles when driving and low pressure what do I do
What's low pressure ?
very detail demonstrate. how is it holding up. its $35 as long it works.
Thanks! It's been good, no issues so far.
Amazing video thank you 👍👍
👍🏽
👍 good work
Much respect!
Great Video!
Thank you!
I'm thinking I may have this issue but is there any reason why you would want to replace the entire PCV valve kit over just replacing the diaphragm? I see they sell the entire valve as well.
The entire PCV kit comes with the cheaply made valve, which will be prone to tearing again.
replaced the diaphragm, pcv still not working and engine is misfiring. possibly because of it, maybe? Pls help
Check to see if you have a vacuum leak.
Hey when you say stumble does it sound like the car is cammed because I’m having an issue like that and is giving misfire codes only when idle. so Im guessing it is this but I don’t want to buy the whole pcv because the dealership is charging me 200 for the whole thing and the ecs that is 130 takes a whole week.
You can just remove the valve and check if its torn.
Weird one here but when I remove the dipstick, no response. When I remove the oil cap, no response from the engine but it has plenty of suction.
Okay, I see. You can always remove the cap and check the diaphragm and see if it's in good shape.
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds Well, took off the current pcv valve top and diaphragm. Looked fine. Put new one on and car feels amazing now. No more sluggish accel. and engine stumbles like crazy when I remove the dip stick now!
@@draza3083 Nice! I'm happy you got it fixed. If it's the same diaphragm that I suggested, it's much stronger than the stock one.
tks!
Hey, my idle only changes slightly, when I take out the oil cap. not as bad as in this video. Could it mean the PCV is on its way out?
Yes, it could be. You can always just remove the cap and check the diaphragm.
Yo, have you heard of the gram 70mm throttle body for mk6 Gti? I might do an install and review video for the fam!
Yea I've heard of it. Do you still have the stock intake manifold?
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds yes
I haven’t seen really anything on online which is kinda weird, but I’m willing to do an install video and review on it!! I’m complete stg2 apr and dsg tune on a mk6 Gti so, let’s see!!
@@razturret okay cool. I'm assuming a lot of people just address the other air restriction parts that are cheaper. Still would be interesting to see it in action though.
I replaced mine, but it stil doesn't change. Any suggestions on what it might be?
What doesn't change? Did the old diaphragm that you removed had tear?
Do you have an update on this part? Is it worth it?
It's still on the car, no issues so far.
I did the dip stick test and appeared to be bad. I changed the diaphragm and what surprised me is that the old one wasn't broken.
However with the new one the engine started stumbling when i remove the dip stick.
So... I guess I fixed something that i didn't know was wrong hahaha.
Lol. Hey, it's fixed now 🤷🏽♂️
So basically pcv valve is the one that brings up an engine light?
Yes, it can.
Wen I remove my dip stick my. At shut off
I was wondering why the new spring was shorter, I was expecting the old compressed spring to be shorter.
I believe the new spring is stiffer, but shorter. The old one is softer.
My diaphragm came off in about 9 pieces lol
Wow, lol. Did you notice the symptoms?
@@CraftyWorkshopBuilds yes I did. I put this on late last night. Have to go for a long drive today so I should know more. I had suction through the purge hole before the change and no longer have that. It was only 35°F here in the US last night so that probably didn't help getting it to come off without breaking. I warmed up the new diaphragm before I out it on. Let the car run for at least a half hour after and no codes came up.
@@aimeagle ok, I see. Now that you install the new one you should be good. If you had left the torn one in for too long, it could cause other problems.
