Nice. Although i just removed the fuel pump fuse and cranked it then removed the plugs. No need to remove injectors

Thanks mate, another excellent video. My heart sunk when that pipe came off, the joys of working on the TT lol.

Great video, I always look forward to the next one. On the compression test I always thought the throttle should be wide open during the test. It would like to see if there is any difference with the throttle body removed.

Thats how i do it, throttle open and 5-10 cranks, usually. dont think removing the throttle body will make much difference than having it wide open. thanks for supporting the channel means a lot

Dom, I'm not a mechanic, but could that orangy stain down the bulkhead be fake tan? hahahahahaha Seriously though, great vid, that little pump is a useful gadget to get oil out of places it shouldn't be....looks like a lot of hoses need replacing too! I look forward to next installment.

Iv got 225 and i think my engine is in good shape. But… i dont think its pushing properly, its not pulling the way 225 should. Must be some pressure is lost somewhere or sensor?

Could be a large number of things, best advice i could give is fit a boost gauge, probably £30-40 and will tell you if you have a problem or not. easy as that 👍

First thing I would do is run a scan for codes. A diagnostic reader/vcds can point you in the right direction. As well as the fault codes you can look at the live data to see if any of the values are too far from what they should be. As Dom says a boost gauge is handy to check the actual boost pressure. On my car, like most TT's there were multiple leaks in the vacuum lines/pcv system causing the boost leaks. Made a cheap smoke tester to find out where the leaks were coming from, changed the pipework and it runs much better now. Also changed the spark plugs and coil packs as the coils are a weak point.

Wowser- worst oil leak ive seen! That engine is a bit tired, but so would if i had done 180k lol
