Glow plugs on the VW Golf V Hatchback (1K1) vehicles should be replaced on a cold engine to avoid burns. However, if the component won't unscrew, the engine is to be warmed up: due to thermal expansion, the glow plugs unscrew easier, thereby reducing the risk of damaging the threads in the cylinder head.
The components should be replaced in a set. Since the glow plugs installed on the VW Golf V Hatchback (1K1) vehicle have the same service life and work in the same conditions, then if one glow plug fails, the remaining plugs are most likely to fail shortly.
Dismantling the components requires the use of special tools: a special air impact wrench and a torque wrench. With the help of these, glow plugs can be unscrewed without breaking off their tips.
Before installing new components, clean soot from the threaded hole with a reamer of the proper diameter. Apply small amount of lubricant to it. Then screw it into the plug hole in the cylinder head, unscrew and clean it.
Glow plugs should be tightened with the torque specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, you may damage the thread of the component, or compression will drop in the cylinders of the engine. First, screw in the glow plug by hand, and then tighten it with a torque wrench.
To avoid costly repair of the engine in case of unsuccessful removal of glow plugs, their replacement should better be left to professionals.
AUTODOC recommends doing the following after the glow plugs of the VW Golf V Hatchback (1K1) vehicle have been replaced:
Turn the ignition key of the VW Golf V Hatchback (1K1) vehicle. If everything has been done properly, the glow plugs indicator will light on the instrument panel.
Watch the indicator. After about 10 seconds it should go off, although exact time of glow plugs operation depends on the temperature of the engine.
Start the engine of the VW Golf V Hatchback (1K1) vehicle and assess its operation in the warm-up mode. If the engine has been started without problems, and it runs smoothly and without interruptions, it means that glow plugs have been replaced correctly.
