Workshop procedure for VW — the exact step sequence and torque figures, straight from real workshop data.
🧭 Before you start
Fits: VW Touran I (1T, 2003–2015)
- Special tools named: VAS 5565
- Renewed: leaking injector, seals
Don't miss
- This step serves only to have the fuel pump running when the engine is not running.
- Operate remove controlV.A.G 1348/3A and check injectors for leaks (visual check). Only 1 to 2 drops per minute must escape from each valve when fuel pump is running.
- After replacing components of injection system, erase learnt values in engine control unit vehicle diagnosis tester "“Guided fault finding”".Always renew seals.

📋 Procedure
- ⚠ Fuel supply line is pressurized. Wear eye protection and protective clothing to avoid possible injury and skin contact. Before loosening hose connections, wrap a cloth around the connection. Then release pressure by carefully pulling hose off connection. — Remove lower part of intake manifold .
- Pull connectors off injectors.
- Pull fuel rail with injectors off intake manifold and lay on a clean cloth.
- Fold 2nd row seats forwards.
- Separate carpet under seats and fold it back General body repairs, interior70Luggage compartment trims; Removing and installing luggage compartment floor.
- Remove covers from fuel delivery unit.
- First check that connector (1) is securely seated by pulling the connector without pressing the catch. The connector can cause a fault if it has not been fitted correctly.
- Now pull off connector.
- Check the contacts on the connector and on the fuel delivery unit for damage.
- Connect test instrument adapter/DSO (5-pin)VAS 5565 to connector and fuel delivery unit.
- Connect remote control for V.A.G 1348V.A.G 1348/3A to test instrument adapter/DSO (5-pin)VAS 5565 and to battery positive (+). [Note: This step serves only to have the fuel pump running when the engine is not running.]

Who makes these pages, and how
TorqFix was built by a mechanic — after a 2,700 km drive with five roadside repairs that no diagnostic tool could explain.
The figures on this page come from manufacturer workshop documentation and are shown as they are. The page is assembled automatically from that data — it is not written by an AI. The AI works in the chat, where it answers for your specific car. It writes nothing here.
Variants of the same model differ. Cross-check torque against the factory manual for your engine before final tightening.
